[Inkscape-user] Saving as PDF creates a very large file

Hello,

I have a brochure in an svg file.

I tried to save it as PDF using inkscape 0.46 on Linux Kubuntu.

But the PDF file size is in the megabytes... when my svg file is very small.

How come it gets to big in PDF..?

What can I do to have a normal size PDF file..?

Cheers
