[magick-users] avoiding antialiasing when composing a small jpeginto an A4 pdf

[Renee Iova]

Hi all,
hi Marcel.

( First : Sorry, if I double-posted this, for BOTH posts 
  i got error messages in return.)

The commands:

1.) convert small jpeg image to pdf (hoping, that 
    antialiasing gets lost -> "+antialias" )

2.) composite -geometry ... \
		SmallerImage.formerly.jpg.now.pdf \
		A4_Target.pdf \
		pdf:composed.pdf;

The file A4_Target.pdf comes from gs -sDEVICE=pdfwriter ... 

Before composing the page looks fine.

Don't have a clue, where to continue...


Thanks for replying that quick!


Greetings,
Rene
