I take it you're using a Sun JVM prior to 1.4.2_16. There seems to be a bug in earlier version where a Class.getResourceAsStream(String) returns null if the filename contains a space character. I didn't notice this problem before but I was able to reproduce it on Sun JDK 1.4.2_13. It disappeared when I installed 1.4.2_16. It does not appear in 1.5.0_10 (or later) and 6.0_03.
Just to explain what this has to do with the PDF growing to over 100KB: There's a fallback built in that loads the JDK's default sRGB color profile if the one bundled with FOP cannot be loaded for some (ha!) reason. The sRGB profile Sun bundles is about 100KB in size while ours is only about 5KB.
