better (in terms of quality/filesize ratio) than existing tools in case the
input image is a JPEG or JPEG2000 file.
For the record, the imagemagick command to lossless convert any image to
PDF using zip-encoding, is:
For example, imagemagick will re-encode the input JPEG image and thus change
its content:
convert input.jpg -compress Zip output.pdf
$ convert img.jpg img.pdf
$ pdfimages img.pdf img.extr # not using -j to be extra sure there is no recompression
$ compare -metric AE img.jpg img.extr-000.ppm null:

If one wants to do a lossless conversion from any format to PDF with
imagemagick then one has to use zip-encoding:
$ convert input.jpg -compress Zip output.pdf
$ pdfimages img.pdf img.extr # not using -j to be extra sure there is no recompression
$ compare -metric AE img.jpg img.extr-000.ppm null:

The downside is, that using imagemagick like this will make the resulting PDF
files a few times bigger than the input JPEG or JPEG2000 file and can also not
