Defaulting to lossless FlateEncode compression seems like a good idea, if the file is too big you can always run another distill cycle after wards manually.
Another possibility would be to set the option based on the format of the image loaded (I'm sure I read somewhere that it is planned to support formats other than PNG). ie FlateEncode for GIF's and PNG's and DCTEncode for JPEG's. > The resolution for Postscript is 72 dpi, and I'm not sure this can be changed. > Would you send me an example postscript file along with the original png? Sure, http://jimmacdonald.co.uk/matplotlib/image.png http://jimmacdonald.co.uk/matplotlib/image.eps http://jimmacdonald.co.uk/matplotlib/image.py image.py generates image.eps from image.png. image.png is simple enough for ps2pdf not to use DCT encoding. Looking at the postscript shows that the image has resolution of 335x230 compared to the original of 318x301.
