Besides Hans methode (texexec --pdf --fig=c yourfile.jpg) I want to 
remark that PDFTeX is able to include JPEG and PNG graphics directly 
thus you do not need to convert them. Actually, Hans methode does the 
conversion from JPEG to PDF  simply by including the JPEG in TeX. (Old 
versions of PDFTeX also supported TIFF, but there are legions of TIFF 
subformats of which only a fraction was supported. Consequently, TIFF 
had been dropped.)

Regards,

Tobias
