Re: PDF Limitations?

[Mike Wills <koldark@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have found that for SPLTOOL, there is a limit somewhere before the PDF 
gets corrupted. I am not exactly sure the limit, but I have hit it several 
times with PDFs over about 3000+ pages. I can't say exactly where the limit 
as I have never tried to find that out. Brad, what is the limit? Can you 
tell us? Is there a reason for it?
