    Why is a pdf created by PDFScanLib v1.2.2, so much smaller/higher quality than one made in Acrobat?

      I'm currently scanning documents at 600 dpi, compressing to jpeg, and creating PDFs from there. Pdfs are usually 20-30 pages, and are about 20mb. After OCR, and reducing the jpegs to 400dpi, I can get the file size down to about 11mb. However, some pdfs I've found as 'benchmarks' are under 1mb for 15-20 pages. The only difference I can find are that they are produced in PDFScanLib. Is that responsible for the difference?
