I understand, I have had some luck with the latex build pipeline in another
context, but ended up with various restrictions on what RST syntax can be used
(in order to avoid errors creating PDFs). Mark Leslie would have more details
on what to avoid.
However for the direct issue of image handling I have an answer discovered
earlier this month.
To handle images consistently for both HTML and PDF:
.. image:: foo.png
:width: 100% <-- to make sure we start within bounds
:scale: 80% <-- scale is adjusted from above width, change percentage to
make content consistent in final output
So some examples would be:
.. image:: webpage.png
:width: 100%
:scale: 100%
.. image:: windows_installer_wizard.png
:width: 100%
:scale: 60%
.. image:: open_layers_preview.png
:width: 100%
:scale: 80%
.. image:: config_page_detail.png
:width: 100%
:scale: 30%
But yeah until the PDF is cleaned up may as well leave it out. You can even
indicate a volunteer is needed in your release announcement.
