If you meant "clone", not "image", then actually Clonezilla is not
really good at cloning larger disk to smaller one. This is because
Clonezilla uses block-based program (Partclone) to clone the file
system, not file-based.
There is an option to use the option "-k1" in the expert mode for this
purpose, however, it's not 100% working.
