    Hi When i encrypt a text file using .Net rijndael encryption the size of the text file increases. I really don't want that the size of the file increasses because the whole application works over the size of the file. User will not be aware of the fact that whatever size he will enter would increase and thus could fail the application to work. Or may be if some one knows that it increases the size by any certain size then i might sort this out by keeping some space for encrypted file in advance and giving user the detail of the size of the file after encryption. Any suggestion to deal with this situation. ta

      Encrypting a file in a way that it can be decrypted is probably going to increase the size most of the time. What if you zip it, then encrypt the zipped data ?
