The issue here isn't *generating* a pdf, but that when I export a card
to one, livecode is *horribly* inefficient, making a file 10 times the
size it should be.
Could any of these options help to reduce PDF size?

By the way, I still believe that a PDF build using Quartam
must be smaller than a PDF created in an automatic way. :)

One of the ways, which is, admittedly, immensely tedious, is to import a
PDF page by page into GIMP
and export them as images.
Probably a way to automate that????
Why did I suggest that? Good question: a bit like why people climb Mount
Everest/Chomolungma: 'cos it's there.
