That was a misunderstanding: pdflatex uses .png, not .pnm. I would scale the image with gimp (and thereby also write it as .png). Or do you need to do batch processing? In this case, use something like pnmscale _options_ < infile > outfile (not tested). The netpbm tools usually work as filters. Georg
