Hi,

I need to reduce the file size of my PDF in Fedora. Apparently, I may
be able to use Adobe Acrobat Professsional to do this:

http://www.adobe.com/designcenter-archive/acrobat/articles/acr7optimize/acr7optimize.pdf

But I was wondering if there is an open source way to achieve the same
result in Fedora?

Why not compress it with a compression tool such as xz?

because this is not a solution for the question

how do you imagine to open such files on different OS?
as example on windows even winrar can not unpack tar.xz
PDF is for exchange documents

He didn't provide any other requirements than that he needed the file to be smaller. He may or may not need to be able to open the file on Windows. Maybe he just needs it to fit on a USB drive he has. Without more information using a compression program seems like an easy possible solution. And even on windows 7z can be used to uncompress files compressed with xz.
