I don't think imagemagick is the best tool for this.
However I did recently have success improving scanned receipts (which the scanner gave as JPEG-in-a-PDF) using pdftoimage, then using imagemagick to reduce the size of the image a quarter and convert it to a monochrome PNG. Don't forget +repage when you resize.
Hi Jason I have been using pdfsizeopt to resize pdf files. It uses jbig2 as the encoder and the reduction in size varies. The last pdf went from 51MB to 13MB with little appreciable difference in quality. http://code.google.com/p/pdfsizeopt/ Cheers Nic
