Ok thank you very much. 

I'll try with low loss JPEGs, maybe that's why the PDF's are so big.

There is no reason to use same version for different users and needs. 

As for me, i create 2 PDF versions : 
- one with max 300 dpi high quality low loss JPEGs (because no loss is useless but leads to huge PDFs) 
this is for printer 
- one with max 75dpi and medium quality medium loss JPEGs, that is allready much smaller 
and that can be further reduced in size using the various tricks of the wiki.
