Re: Images in MultiMarkdown -> context -> PDF

[Peter Rolf <indiego@gmx.net>]

I suggest that you use 'identify' from ImageMagick to check your graphics.

identify -verbose foo.jpg

One graphic has a defined resolution (72ppi) and one has none.

I also use ImageMagick to automatically add the resolution info to the
graphics. No problems with graphic sizes since then. Here is the
simplyfied content of a batch file that I normally use...

for %%i in (*.png) do convert -units PixelsPerInch -set density 96 "%%i"

The important thing is, that you use PNG as graphic format, when you
make your screenshots. JPG isn't lossless and any re-compression (e.g.
by adding an arrow, clipping) makes things even worse. Convert them to
JPG in the very last step (if you must).

Also: how about scaling your browser to 200% before you take your
screenshots?
