Converting TOPAZ ebook to PDF

Here's my creating PDF ebook flow:

OS: Fedora 14
Tools: Calibre, Foxit Phantom

1. Install latest version of Calibre (0.8.40)
2. Install Foxit Phantom through Wine
3. Unzip the SVG HTMLZ Archive (rename .HTMLZ -> .ZIP)
4. Add ebook to Calibre by openning index_svg.xhtml
5. Convert ebook to PDF files (the final PDF output may be 100MB)
6. Split the final PDF per one page (Open Foxit Phantom > Tools > Split)
7. Delete the blank pages and "zoom in-zoom out" pages (1/2 of total numbers of PDF files)
8. Use Foxit Phantom to merge all split PDF files to 1 final PDF files
9. Crop the next, previous button in PDF file.

And now you have your PDF file from SVG files . Compare it's size with the original TOPAZ file !!!.
