Since several people here do this kind of thing, I figured I'd ask here.
I'm trying my hand at scanning stuff to PDF. The only thing I seem to
find for doing this in Linux is Simple Simple Scan. I'm scanning in photo
mode because text mode is unacceptably grainy. My problem now is
converting the resulting jpg into a pdf. ImageMagick is the obvious tool
for this, but no matter what I do, the resulting pdf is grainy. How can I
tell ImageMagick to not diddle with the quality?
