Under Linux (Slackware 10.2) I have only TeTeX: pdftex => This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.4) pdflatex => This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.4) Under Windows (2000 Pro) using MikTeX: pdftex => This is pdfTeX, Version 3.141592-1.21a (MiKTeX 2.4) pdflatex => This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (MiKTeX 2.4) (*) (*) I am using this one to create PDF files from LaTeX docs. For this reason, I think, I have almost the same size of PDF files under Windows (MiKTeX/LaTeX) and Linux (TeTeX/ConTeXt).

I see that the PDF generated by MiKTeX (the bigger one) looks a little better than the one generated by TeTeX. So I understand now why this difference between their sizes.
