I have a InDesign document which contains log of graphics imported (linked) from Illustrator.

I need to have this document printed. What should I do with the content to send the most appropriate file?
Do I need to rasterise the content? Flatten the layers (there are many)? Leave as is? What will give the smallest file yet sufficient content for the printer?

Export as PDF/X-1a.. done.

You shouldn't need to do anything special as long as the InDesign document is set up with correct bleeds and page sizes.

Files sizes are never a concern for print production. The PDFX file is going to be large. But with commercial printing quality is the primary concern, not file size.
