how to reduce size of pdf in netsuite using suitescript 1.0

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To reduce the size of a PDF in NetSuite using SuiteScript 1.0, you would need to use a third-party library or service, as SuiteScript itself does not provide any built-in functionality for manipulating PDF files beyond generating them. However, you can generate a PDF file using SuiteScript 1.0 with the

nlapiPrintRecord

function. Here is an example:

javascript
function createPdfFile(recordType, recordInternalId) {
    try {
        var transNumber = nlapiLookupField('transaction', recordInternalId, 'transactionnumber');
        var fileName = transNumber + '.PDF';
        var pdfObject = nlapiPrintRecord('TRANSACTION', recordInternalId, 'PDF');
        pdfObject.setFolder(XXX); // Replace 'XXX' with the internal ID of the folder where you want to save the PDFs.
        pdfObject.setName(fileName);
        nlapiSubmitFile(pdfObject);
    } catch (err) {
        nlapiLogExecution('debug', "Error Printing " + recordType + " Internal ID " + recordInternalId, err);
    }
}

This function generates a PDF file from a transaction record and saves it to a specified folder in the file cabinet. However, it does not reduce the size of the PDF file. To reduce the size of the PDF, you would need to use a third-party library or service that provides this functionality, and integrate it with your SuiteScript code. This could involve sending the PDF file to the service, receiving the reduced-size PDF file, and saving it back to the file cabinet. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
