Hi Patra,

Here is an Adobe article on how to get better performance from a LiveCycle Designer PDF. While many of the tips are not specifically stated to be about file size, they are about better rendering and performance which usually has something to do with file size as well.

Hope this helps,

If you are using standard fonts, de-select Embed Fonts, and this should decrease the file size.

You should be aware of this bug in Livecycle Designer 8 which increases filesize and reduces performance of forms:
