Dear list,
I create booklets with the following source:
\setuppapersize[A5, landscape][A4]
\setuparranging[2UP]
\setuplayout[page]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]
\setupinteractionscreen[option={landscape,paper}]
\starttext
\def\Doc{xml-mkiv.pdf}
\getfiguredimensions[\Doc]
\dorecurse{\noffigurepages}
{\externalfigure[\Doc][page=\recurselevel, width=\textwidth]}
\stoptext
In this case, I need to impose the resulting PDF file again:
\setuppapersize[A5, landscape][A4]
\setuparranging[2TOP]
\setuplayout[page]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]
\setupinteractionscreen[option={portrait,paper}]
\starttext
\def\Doc{booklet.pdf}
\getfiguredimensions[\Doc]
\dorecurse{\noffigurepages}
{\externalfigure[\Doc][page=\recurselevel, width=\textwidth]
\externalfigure[\Doc][page=\recurselevel, width=\textwidth]}
\stoptext
Generating this second booklet (from the same PDF document), LMTX
generates a resulting PDF document which is four times bigger than the
one generated by LuaTeX.
In fact, these are the file sizes:
1.2M Mar 4 18:38 xmlpdf-lmtx.pdf
321K Mar 4 18:41 xmlpdf-luatex.pdf
It seems as LMTX was (almost) disabling PDF compression on the second
imposition.
Would anyone be so kind to confirm this issue?
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo
