Problem Description

It is taking relatively a longer time to print to PDF in CONNECT Edition.

Solution

You can disable some of these options in the PDF pltcfg.

From the (PDF) Print dialog box, go to File > Edit Printer Driver Configuration and edit these settings:

Enable bookmarks=OFF

Enable Links=OFF

Enable Searchable Text=OFF

Enable Optional Content=OFF

Enable Measuring=OFF

Enable geo-referencing=OFF

Rasterized Quality Factor=50


The following variables can be used to improve the speed of the rasterized print. They can be defined under file – Settings – Configuration – Configuration Variables.

MS_PLT_RASTERIZED_MAX_TILE_WIDTH

and

MS_PLT_RASTERIZED_MAX_TILE_HEIGHT

Note: Tile Width / Height used for rasterized printing. Default width / height size is 2048 and max is 8192.

Set the values 4096 or 8192 for the above variables. 

After editing, save the file and reload to use.
