Only once, as conversion is cached.

Actually, adobe tools tend to bloat pdf nowadays esp because of those
uncompressed xml blobs (last week I saw an indesign file that had 6
lines of xml for each time the file has been edited (timestamps etc,
rather useless info) which added up to quite some Kbytes.
And, adding structure (tagged pdf) is really bloating the file.
