Dear all, I run
R CMD build --compact-vignettes="both" gRbase and/or R CMD build --compact-vignettes="gs+qpdf" gRbase and in the log from r-devel (on winbuilder) I get * checking sizes of PDF files under 'inst/doc' ... WARNING 'gs+qpdf' made some significant size reductions: compacted 'gRbase-arrays.pdf' from 421Kb to 115Kb consider running tools::compactPDF(gs_quality = "ebook") on these files According to "writing R extensions" things should be fine (I have gs and qpdf on my system): "The --compact-vignettes option will run tools::compactPDF over the PDF files in inst/doc (and its subdirectories) to losslessly compress them. This is not enabled by default (it can be selected by environment variable _R_BUILD_COMPACT_VIGNETTES_) and needs qpdf (http://qpdf.sourceforge.net/) to be available. " Can anyone please tell me what to do?
