Is that JPEG the old cosine transform version or the newer JPEG2000
wavelet version?
I've scanned a few game manuals, but my goal has been to retain the
scanned images in a lossless format within the PDF. Typically, I've
used 600 dpi LZW-compressed TIFF for black & white, and 300 dpi
JPEG2000 lossless for color. Yeah, my file sizes are large, but I can
always redistill them into a smaller format at some point in future as
needed.
So if anyone needs an uber-high quality PDF copy of the Dungeons of
Daggorath manual, let me know! ;-)
