My guess is no. May be you are using some graphics capabilities of SVG that need to be rasterize in PDF (such as gradients, filters or whatever...). For simple text, the size of a PDF file should be really small if FOP generates text in PDF as text. May be you can send some additional informations to the FOP team. Please could you also cc this mailing list.
