It might have something to do with the image compression settings. Check that both have the same quality % for JPEG compression in the PDF export dialog. Also, the Linux version might use a different compression library. Let us know, how it goes. I think this does not really qualify as a bug report :) These types of questions are better to first throw on http://ask.libreoffice.org/ Thank you for that hint! Indeed the Windows and the Linux version of LibreOffice have different default settings for PDF export. Default settings for images in Linux: "lossless compression" (or something like that, in German it is "Verlustfreie Komprimierung") Default settings for images in Windows: "JPEG compression" and "reduce image resolution" (to 90%). When I set the same settings for images in Linux, the resulting file size is nearly the same as with the Windows version of LibreOffice. |
Created attachment 122938 [details] open letter - just an example! When I save the document attached as PDF with the Linux (I am using Lubuntu 14.04.4) version of LibreOffice (Version: 5.1.0.3), then the file size of the PDF is around 251 kB. When I save the document attached as PDF with the Windows version of LibreOffice (Version: 5.0.4.2 x64), then the file size of the PDF is around 161 kB. Why is that?
