You have two options in regards to reducing the file size.
1. In the drop down menu you see when you use 'Save As PDF' in the
Print Dialog Box, look for a filter to "reduce file size", which
will save the PDF at a lower resolution and do what it says it will
do - reduce the file size.
2. The other option is something you can use on the PDF's you have
already saved. Right-click (Control-click) on the files icon, and
select 'open with -> colorsync utility'. Down the bottom of this
window you will see a drop down menu for 'filters', select 'reduce
file size' and then 'apply'. You can then clos the window, and
select 'save' from the dialog box that pops up.
Apple conveniently provides a video of this at their Small Business
Quick Tip of the Week site:

Note also the CUPS-PDF driver, not sure if it produces smaller PDFs:
