export multiple frames pdf error
Mar 31st, 2008, 1:54pm  
I used the example in the pdf libraries to export multiple frames to a single pdf page, however the program crashes after a short period. I think this is because the pdf file gets to big, I get the following error:

"Exception in thread "Thread-2" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

at com.lowagie.text.pdf.ByteBuffer.append_i(Unknown Source)"

Is there anyway to increase the pdf buffer, or any other way to do this?

mmh found a dirty fix

"If you get a OutOfMemoryError while running your program, use the Preferences window to increase the amount of available memory. Check the box next to "Increase maximum available memory" and enter an amount."

This allows me to create larger pdf but also hogs up the system, am I doing something wrong with the exporting? I am generating alot of small elipses, like 500 a frame, is this a result of the pdf export or my code?
