Amazing world we live in...
Did you ever noticed that there are a lot of articles(265,000 results) out there that talk about linearized / 'Fast Web View' pdf files? These articles talk about the purpose of it, or about software that is capable of creating these kind of PDF files. As a SharePoint developer, I was really interested in testing this with SharePoint and Bit Rate Throttling so I started looking for a sample file. Some large(around 5mb) linearized pdf sample file.
According to the amount of articles you might think that this should be no problem at all. Well, gues again! Not a single one of the authors of these articles ever bothered to attach an example of a linearized file! None! 0 out of 265.000! (<=I did not check all of them. I gave up after 1.5 hours of searching)
Sigh... what an amazing world we live in. Stupid *&$^#!
Cheers,
