Yes I tried pretty much everything. I got one option which reduced the SWF
from 500KB to around 350KB, but that's still way larger than the one the
Mac produced. (it was the -G flag which did that reduction IIRC). It gets
really small if I do -s bitmap, but that kinda defeats the purpose.

The PDF is downloaded from a Bank's web site, so I can't really modify it
(aside from running it through pdftk as you say - I've yet to try that -
but it doesn't really answer the question of why the two OSes running the
same version of pdf2swf produce different results).
