I second chainring's "Clearscan" suggestion. Generally, it's not better than Abbyy, and if the ultimate aim is to convert pdf to epub, go for Abbyy. Yet, to have a small size pdf file, Clearscan works great with 1dollarscan scans. One can reduce the file size of a near 200 mb book to 5-10 MB with that. Since the scans are good quality, Clearscan reads the file well.

It seems, for 1dollarscan pdf's, that's better than "Reducing File Size" with Acrobat --I did it once, and although I don't remember the precise difference in size of the original versus the reduced file, it was not too impressive.
