Does anyone here use ImageMagick to produce their PDF
files of old
documentation? I've got some scanned documentation here in TIFF format
which I need to munge into a PDF file using 'convert'.
Question is, will that result in loss of quality, or will the data for
each frame be stored in the resulting PDF file using exactly the same
colour depth and size of each input image? (I don't care if it uses a
different compression, providing it's non-lossy)
I thought that TIFF-within-PDF meant that PDF was essentially
a wrapper around the TIFFs, but I could be wrong.
A quick (or maybe, slow!) way to find out would be to encode
as desired, and then perform the reverse operation and see
if what you get back is identical to what went in.
