imnum is a comma-separated list of integers indicating the images in order that they appear in the PDF. Use listimages.pl to retrieve the image numbers.

DESCRIPTION

Requires the ImageMagick convert program to be available

Tweak all of the JPG images embedded in a PDF to reduce their size. This reduction can come from increasing the compression and/or rescaling the whole image. Various options give you full control over which images are altered.
