When I need clean images in a .pdf document (assuming I have clean lossless format images in the source document), I use either of the two: 1. I have Adobe PostScript driver installed as a printer, with which I create .ps files; then I use Adobe Acrobat Distiller 5 (version 5, because this is what I have; don't know about more recent versions) with Settings -> Job Options... -> Compression -> both "color images" and "grayscale images" set to ZIP or 2. I use OpenOffice Writer (or use OO also for MS Word documents if the slightly layout differences are not strict) and create the .pdf with the OO built-in menu command (Scribus is also a good option, but may be a different thing/scope) Otherwise I tried Ghostscript & GSView, or PDFWriter, but I have never been able to find an option to force the creation of a .pdf with images *not* converted to JPEG.
