Hi, According to the documentation, it is possible to automatically convert TIFF images to a format supported by LMTX via GraphicsMagick. https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Using_Graphics#Image_Conversion However, by default this produces pdf files which are quite huge. is it possible to instruct grapichsmagick to convert tiff images to jpg instead of to pdf ? There's an example on the linked page in the documentation, but I have to admit that I don't quite understand what I should do... Best Denis
Partial success:
I haven't been able to convert the images to jpg proper, but I've been at least been able to enable jpeg compression, thus making the resulting pdfs much smaller:
% enable compression for tiffs
\startluacode
local function compress(oldname, newname, compression)
if not compression or compression == "" then
compression = "jpeg"
end
os.execute(string.format(
'gm convert -compress %s "%s" "%s"',
compression, oldname, newname)
)
end
-- Set the PDF and default TIFF converters to the above function.
figures.converters.tif.pdf = compress
figures.converters.tif.default = compress
\stopluacode
Best,
Denis
