The problem is due to you settings in Distiller. You have set it for
optimising for print, instead of for the screen. Check also your compression
options as well.

I'm wondering whether making pdfs bigger than the .doc
files they come from is normal for Acrobat's pdfwriter
(maker?). I don't know much about it and also wonder
whether I'm missing some setting. (There aren't many
graphics in the files I'm converting, but they do use
Tahoma TT font).
