For example: High resolution file: convert -quality 75 -density 300 srcimg/image.tif hrimg/image.jpg Lower resolution file: convert -geometry 48% -quality 50 -density 144 srcimg/image.tif lrimg/image.jpg Since 144/.48 = 300, the image sizes are the same. Since the dimensions in pixels may differ from html to pdf, I leave the WIDTH and DEPTH attributes blank. You can choose any combination of density and geometry to get your files to be the proper size for html. I keep separate "versions" (lrimg, hrimg) of the graphics in separate directories and then just cp -R the appropriate directory to "images" before running openjade. My imagedata tags refer to all files as, for example: <imagedata fileref="images/image.jpg" format="JPG"/> -- Kevin M. Dunn Professor of Chemistry Hampden-Sydney College --
