I am attaching for you, a test page on pdf file, a screenshot of how it is displayed on kindle, and the settings I use to optimize the file.

Hello Angelos. Welcome back. I'm confused. The "test" attachment--is that from your original PDF file (which doesn't display correctly on the paperwhite), or is that after processing with Adobe? Same with your screen shot--is that a screen shot of an Adobe-processed file? If it is, can you also post a sample from the original PDF file (that doesn't display correctly) and also a screen shot from it? I don't see in the screen shot you posted where it doesn't match the PDF files.
I'm guessing it's some kind of font rendering issue, but I can't be sure without seeing the original file. It looks like what Adobe may be doing is converting to bitmaps (at least--that's what is in your two attached PDFs--they have bitmapped pages, which should be displayed faithfully on any kindle). If it comes down to having to convert to bitmaps then yes, your resulting PDF file will be larger depending on the resolution, pixel depth, and compression settings of the bitmaps. You can tweak these things, particularly if you use k2pdfopt (-mode copy), but you'll likely have to live with a larger file size.
Still--post the originals. Maybe there's a way to fix and/or embed the font?
