It sounds like PowerPoint maybe converting the chinese characters to images.

  Subject: [Swftools-common] pdf2swf generated file huge size


  I'm exporting ppt to pdf (using openoffice) then converting the pdf to swf 
(using swftools).   

  I noticed that for pure english files, if I use the above method, the 
generated swf is comparable to pdf in size.  However, for most of my foreign 
language files, the generated swf size is much bigger.  I have a pdf , 367kb, 
in english and chinese (exported from ppt), but the generated swf is almost 
5mb.  Whereas, if I directly export this file from ppt to swf using openoffice, 
the generated swf is only 142kb.  

  The command I ran was as follows

  > pdf2swf -T --flashversion=7 -z --zlib -F --fontdir=\WINDOWS\Fonts 
Lnopic.pdf -o Lnopic.pdf.swf

  The version of swftools I use is 0.7.

  Clues?
