-embedjpg
(Merge only) (PDF output only)
Embed the JPG graphic file as is.
Syntax
-embedjpg Y|N
Description
Control whether JPG files are embedded "as is" or pre-rendered to a raster applicable to the rendering area size. The default setting is N.
Typically, passing the merge option -embedjpg Y results in a much smaller PDF. The results depend on the image, its JPG encoding flavor, JPG compression, and resolution.
Users should strive to pre-convert their images to the size and resolution that is and, more likely, choose the PNG format.
Rotated Image Limitation
Embedding doesn't happen if the image doesn't fit the area. For example, a rectangular image rotated to 0 or 180 degrees may be embedded, but for 90 or 270 degrees, embedding will be ignored. However, even for 180 degrees image is not going to be rotated.
