Document Size vs File Size


Recommended Posts

Hi I’ve just created a document in Affinity Designer. The dimensions are 2.5metres by 1.7metres. When I export to PDF for print the file size comes out at about 400kb. Is this normal? I expected it to be a much bigger file size. 

 

Thanks for your help

Hi, UkeyD

What you came across is part of the great advantage of making vector graphics.

Using English measurement terms, look at the following statements:

draw a line 1 inch long

draw a line 1 yard long

draw a line 1 mile long

Each has the same number of letters, and encoding those will have a minuscule difference.
