eh ... normally there should beno loss at all, pdftex just copies the resources
Sorry, I see my question was'nt clear enough.
Is there a way to restore all the images included in a figure library as jpg's, png's or what else?
I could then delete the original images.
in principle one could extract them but one also has to make sure that no xforms are used then, otherwise after a few cycles one ends up with many nested xforms; think of something \startTEXpage \externalfigure[yourbase.pdf][page=1,object=no] \stopTEXpage another option is to use pdfimages (which can extract bitmaps); it's probably no big deal to extend rlxtools with an option do extract the images and give them their original names; maybe on a rainy day ...
