Then import the EPS > into FM. That should do the trick. In this case, it's too much trouble making EPS for each PDF file. In any case, a simple one-page test showed that the final PDF size doesn't change much if I use an EPS. It seems to be the complexity of the drawings that causes the large final filesize, and it shouldn't be affected much (if at all) by saving to EPS.
