Reader 7 vs. 8 form file size

Reader 7 vs. 8 form file size: Forms have been created/saved in Designer as v7 dynamic (this is to keep compatibility with those still using Reader7). ALL are enabled. When users with Reader 7 pull open, fill and save, the file size jumps up astronomically (from 400k to 10mb for example). Does this file sizing adjust/go back to original file size once users update to Reader 8? Would love to get a response as soon as possible on this one, thanks!

Reader 8, Windows

If you are digitally signing a dynamic form, you can expect large file sizes.
