ok,
Tried out the -j 50 option. The size reduction wasn't much but quality of swf
came down significantly.
Here's the stats :
Old : 3.39 MB
New : 23.20 MB
New with -j 50 : 14.50 MB (Quality poor; size big)
New with -j 40 : 12.90 MB (Quality poor; size big)
New with -s subpixels = 2 : 7.15 MB (Quality good; size big)
New with -j 50 -s subpixels = 2 : 4.15 MB (Quality very poor;size good)
So guess will wait for the fix.
Thnx,
Sameer

That's a bug. I just committed a fix to git. I'll also upload a snapshot
soon.
You can work around the problem by specifying a more aggressive jpeg
compression using -j:
pdf2swf -j 50 file.pdf -o file.swf
