I had tried using convert in the past but found that when converting
to jpg, there were major problems with colors.  When converting the
png, the colors were perfect but there was no anti-aliasing and the
scaling left all sorts of jaggies and artifacts on the embedded
images.   I didn't bother looking up all the settings since Gimp
seemed to do it automagically.
