Unfortunately, it looks as if it's not as general a result as the "use
EPS rather than PDF for SVG" rule.
I just tried another document, and that one grew by 90k when I
preconverted the PNGs to PDF (again using ImageMagick).
So it seems the answer to whether PDF or PNG gives better final
document size is to try both and see what happens. Not really ideal.
