On source PDFs like these that have native text, the new version, by default, now uses "virtual OCR" to embed the unicode text with the graphics so that you can highlight, search, copy and paste. Notice on the new converted PDF you should be able to select text (in most modern PDF viewers, anyway). This is not true for v1.6x. This accounts for the larger size (the embedded text). You can turn this feature off with the option: -ocr-
...but since there is very little penalty (apart from the slightly larger output file size), and a large upside, it is on by default.
