PDF is able to embed JPEG images as they are without re-encoding them (and
hence loosing quality) but I was missing a tool to do this automatically, thus
I wrote this piece of python code.

The program will take image filenames from commandline arguments and output a
PDF file with them embedded into it. If the input image is a JPEG file, it will
be included as-is without any processing. If it is in any other format, the

bugs
----
If you find a JPEG that, when embedded can not be read by the Adobe Acrobat
Reader, please contact me.
For lossless conversion of other formats than JPEG, zip/flate encoding is used.
This choice is based on a number of tests I did on images. I converted them
into PDF using imagemagick and all compressions it has to offer and then
compared the output size of the lossless variants. 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, contact me.
