I create pdf files since 1997 and I tried almost every possible way to do so (Linux or Windows softwares). LO does one of the best job!
If you want really small and efficient pdf, do the following : Menu > Tools > Options > Fonts and add these 3 substitutions (even if you don't have these fonts installed on your PC): Arial > Helvetica Courier New > Courier Times > Times New Roman and check « Allways » in front of each substitution. This way you will use the always included 35 Type1 Adobe fonts that every pdf reader provides and uses. True, Times is not Times New Roman but closely related. You can do, of course, the sames substitutions with the equivalent Liberation fonts too, so Liberation Sans > Helvetica... etc. The Type1 fonts to use are Helvetica, Courier and Times. Try to create a pdf with these substitutions on and with substitutions off, you'll be surprised how small your pdf can be when the ttf fonts are not embeded. Don't forget that the substitutions are not possible if you embed the ODF document in the pdf (hybrid pdf) because all fonts are then embedded. This is another option that should appear by default, with the « always » choice unchecked but visible to give the user a real choice.
