|
|

|
input to RGB and removes the alpha channel from images with transparency. For
|
|
|
|
|
multipage TIFF or animated GIF, it will only convert the first frame.

Comparison to econvert from ExactImage

--------------------------------------

Like pdflatex and podofoimg2pf, econvert is able to embed JPEG images into PDF
|
|
|
|
|
directly without re-encoding but when given other file formats, it stores them
|
|
|
|
|
just using flate compressen, which unnecessarily increases the filesize.
|
|
|
|
|
Furthermore, it throws an error with CMYK TIF input. It also doesn't store CMYK
|
|
|
|
|
jpeg files as CMYK but converts them to RGB, so it's not lossless. When trying
|
|
|
|
|
to feed it 16bit files, it errors out with Unhandled bps/spp combination. It
|
|
|
|
|
also seems to choose JPEG encoding when using it on some file types (like
|
|
|
|
|
palette images) making it again not lossless for that input as well.
