File-> Save As -> Change File Type to PDF (the actual description in Visio 2010 is "Save As Type...").
To get the size down to what you want, assuming you are using Visio 2010 - go to the Design ribbon at the top, and change "Size" to "Fit to Drawing"

Resize shapes in Visio UML
The shapes are intended to be used as part of a deeper UML solution, which has code behind it. This code expects shapes to behave a certain way, and to have certain attributes. If they are changed by the user too much, then the UML solution can't function properly. It's sometimes hard to know when shapes are just "pretty shapes" and when they are "solution objects". If you just need a "dumb shape" that looks like the UML shapes, sometimes you can Copy, Paste Special - as metafile, then Shape > Operations > Convert to group. You'll have a shape with all the elements of the original, and none of the smarts and locks.
