Package: imagemagick
Version: 6:6.0.6.2-2.2
Severity: wishlist
Despite of what jpeg2ps does, convert does not keep the jpeg encoding
format for the generated file, it uses a bitmap instead.
This leads to huge files.
Below is a simple example that underlines the problem:
$ ls -l x.jpg
-rw-r--r-- 1 bayartb bayartb 41310 2005-03-24 18:04 x.jpg
$ convert x.jpg x.ps
$ ls -l x.ps
-rw-r--r-- 1 bayartb bayartb 1122458 2005-03-24 18:04 x.ps
$ jpeg2ps x.jpg > x.ps
Note on file 'x.jpg': 633x290 pixel, 3 color components
$ ls -l x.ps
-rw-r--r-- 1 bayartb bayartb 53028 2005-03-24 18:04 x.ps
As jpeg2ps is not in sid anymore, Debian lacks this feature, if
imagemagick could provide it, that would be great.
Thanks to Benjamin Bayart who first reported me that bug.
