The comparison is just over the PDF files, old way (Truetype embedding) vs. new way (Type 3 subsetting). The ratios are different because I chose to highlight the examples that are quite "texty". That wasn't a deliberate attempt to mislead, it's just because this change is related to fonts. Most of the other examples use a single font, and the plotting content itself dominates file size.
