For lossless conversion of formats other than JPEG or JPEG2000, zip/flate
encoding is used. This choice is based on tests I did with a number of images.
I converted them into PDF using the lossless variants of the compression
formats offered by imagemagick. In all my tests, zip/flate encoding performed
best. You can verify my findings using the test_comp.sh script with any input
image given as a commandline argument. If you find an input file that is
outperformed by another lossless compression method, contact me.
