ITP: jpeg2ps



Hi,

Does anyone package "jpeg2ps"?
If not so, I ITP this software.
------------------------------------
 Package: jpeg2ps
 Version: 1.8-1
 Section: non-free/graphics
 Priority: optional
 Architecture: i386
 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.1)
 Installed-Size: 42
 Maintainer: Kenshi Muto <kmuto@debian.org>
 Description: Convert JPEG compressed images to PostScript Level 2
  jpeg2ps converts JPEG files to PostScript Level 2 or 3 EPS. In fact, jpeg2ps
  is not really a converter but a "wrapper": it reads the image parameters
  (width, height, number of color components) in a JPEG file, writes the
  according EPS header and then copies the compressed JPEG data to the output
  file. Decompression is done by the PostScript interpreter (only PostScript
  Level 2 and 3 interpreters support JPEG compression and decompression).
  If you have a slow communication channel and a fast printer, sending
  compressed image data is a big win.

But, this software is good converter.

Ex.
  test.jpg (This picture from ImageMagick Logo)
   38607 bytes
  test1.ps which is converted by ImageMagick convert
  977088 bytes
  test2.ps which is converted by jpeg2ps
   49874 bytes

You can convert from PS to EPS format by "ps2epsi" which is included
 in GhostScript.
