Default Why does Convert to PDF increase a Word doc size by 5x into PD

FlashPaper is an Adobe product, not a Microsoft product. Please explain
why you think MS owes you an explanation for how an Adobe product works.

Word 2003 of the Office: Student and Teacher Edition does have the Flash
Paper menu, which contains the Convert to PDF function. The PDF generated
from that conversion are 5x the size of the original Word doc file. Thus, the
PDF become a GDF: Giant Document File or a CDF: Cumbersome Doc File. Please
explain why MS would choose to allow that "turning PDF on its head."
