For material such as the RSX manuals you mentioned, the tool needed is a compression algorithm that handles color with hard edges faithfully. Basically that means a lossless compression scheme. That should be fine, since pages like that should compress very well, at least if the scan has been touched up just a bit to make the page background reasonably pure white.
Ethan worked on a filter a long time ago for DEC manuals. J David Bryan's work was mentioned recently. It is trivial to add page bookmarks with Eric Smith's tumble with the -b %F option
