Any ideas about why the PDF file is so huge and how to reduce its size?

The culprit is the rich text field.  R:Base prints those as graphics, not 
encoded PDF text, when creating a PDF file.  If you reduce the resolution used 
to generate the file you'll get some benefit, but it will still be much larger 
than you would expect.

I believe that the ability to print rich text as formatted text rather than 
images was added in more recently versions of R:Base.

If you recreate the report without using rich text fields, you will get a size 
along the lines of what you expect.
