Great news! Indeed, the resulting PDF must be huge, that's also the case
for the tiff. For the image we need to set the DPI to what the printer
is expecting, that is for my Epson 3880 for example I must tag the TIFF
with 360 DPI and use the correct number of pixels for a proper output.
Is there something similar for the PDF? Or maybe not since it's a "page"
oriented output... Anyway I'll look at your code.

Note that for dt we use TIFF 16-bit before applying the printer
color-profile to achieve best quality.
