There are two questions there:

Yes you can use only certain dlls and not the whole package. However, do
test to make sure you are not missing any dlls that the ones you chose
depend on. If you have access to the source, you could even pull specific
bits and not use the binaries.

Yes all you need is to copy the dlls in your application directory. If you
have more than 1 app using the SDF then it is best to put it in the GAC. If
on your user's device there is a chance that other apps could be using the
SDF, then again it is best to put the dlls in the GAC.

Cheers
Daniel
