Obviously, this is not really a bug, but I should like that convert, in
absence of quality option, simply converts jpeg to pdf without any
alteration. Because I don't know any other common tool which do this like
this. (Pdflatex is not a common tool for most people.) Who can difficult
work can easy work, isn't it ?
Some dev reading this list ?
