Hey guys,

I am currently using Etch and I'm loving it!

Today I had to scan several documents from a Windows machine (not a good 
experience). The output files were of png format. I then transferred these 
files into Debian and used ImageMagick's "convert" utility to convert the png 
images into pdf. However, the pdf file sizes were around 1.6MB each. At this 
point, I I couldn't figure out how to reduce the file size. I searched the 
aptitude repositories and google but I couldn't find a proper solution.

In the end, I had to transfer the files to Mac OS X and use "Preview" to reduce 
the image size.

How is this done in debian? I am sure there are utilities out there but I just 
couldn't find them.

Thank you!
