[R] consider running tools::compactPDF(gs_quality = "ebook")

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?

Best regards
S?ren

I believe R-package-devel is the right place to post this, not r-help. See
https://www.r-project.org/mail.html  for details.

Cheers,
Bert

[Rd] [R] consider running tools::compactPDF(gs_quality = "ebook")

Dear all,

I run

R CMD build --compact-vignettes="both"  gRbase

  'gs+qpdf' made some significant size reductions:
     compacted 'gRbase-arrays.pdf' from 421Kb to 115Kb
