.The .sla file does not include the images, only links to them. The PDF includes the 
images. If you have a lot of images and you don't limit the resolution of the images in 
the pdf, it will be big. The easiest way to make a smaller PDF is to limit the 
resolution when you create the PDF and use a lower compression quality.
