Brighter images in the exported PDF

Hi!
I'm trying to create a PDF with some text and a couple of EPS images. The images are set to RGB and 150 dpi because they are intended for web but mainly printer. However, after exported in the print window the images in the PDF turns out way much brighter than the original RGB images. When the PDF is created without compression by saving as PDF in the save window they it turns out great but at an unacceptable 17 mb. What to do? Why is the compression messing with the brightness?

Ola,

Under the Advanced settings check that the ICC profile setting is the same
for both compressions

Those settings are greyed out :(

Ola,

How are you creating the PDF's? Are you saving to PDF or printing to
Distiller?

I'm printing to distiller.

Right. From the print d/box under color management check that the print
profile is same as source
