TransformFileA
Document manipulation, Miscellaneous functions
Description
The trailing A denotes the ANSI (char) DLL entry point; the ActiveX/COM surface exposes only the Unicode form. Behaviour is identical to TransformFile and string arguments are interpreted using the current SetAnsiMode code page
Applies a transformation to a file allowing objects to be renumbered and reordered.
In certain cases this can result in a more compact cross reference table reducing the size of the PDF.
