There is, indeed! Keeping the discussion on iText, you can find all you need to 
know in Chapter 5 of the book. Do you have a copy? If not, please buy it.

I'm somewhat mystified by your efforts to pre-process images that are already 
in formats that can be handled entirely by iText methods. iText has all the 
methods you need to determine the dimensions of any image (that it is designed 
to employ). You can then use those dimensions to determine the scale factor 
needed to scale the images to the sizes you want.

Please read Chapter 5 and adapt the examples you find there to your own 
situation. You might also try reading the fine documentation.

Cheers,
Bill Segraves
