Here on the Mac:
Jonathan_pic.jpeg (JFIF 1.1) 5951 bytes
pdflatex (PDF 1.4) 9339 bytes
xelatex+xdvipdfmx (PDF 1.4) 8127 bytes
xelatex+xdv2pdf (PDF 1.3) 63399 bytes
Same, after adding \pagestyle{empty} to the file, so that cmr10.pfb
isn't embedded:
pdflatex (PDF 1.4) 7121 bytes
xelatex+xdvipdfmx (PDF 1.4) 6888 bytes
xelatex+xdv2pdf (PDF 1.3) 56357 bytes
Converters:
pdflatex pdftex-1.40.3
xelatex+xdvipdfmx xdvipdfmx (0.4)
xelatex+xdv2pdf Mac OS X 10.4.9 Quartz PDFContext
Thus, on the Mac, using xdv2pdf (invoked by default by xetex) can
induce quite a difference in file size.
