Btw: Is there a tool that compresses a pdf by replacing identical objects with references?
pdfTeX could do this by itself: Store the md5 of the shortest n objects (e.g. n = 1024) smaller then x bytes (e.g. x = 1024, longer objects will typically be unique) and replace new identical objects with references to the already existing ones.
This would e.g. condense all the obj <> endobj in the pdfTeX manual. :-)
such a feature makes sense indeed; maybe even configurable: \pdfshareobjsize=1024 % with 0 meaning no checking done (that way we can experiment) Hans
