JPEG is *one* of multiple image formats supported in PDF files. For
photographs and continuous tone images, it's a reasonable choice for
distribution (but perhaps not for archiving).
But people who scan text and line art and use JPEG compression on it
are driving me insane. That results in the text and line art having
blurry edges. Ugh.
