Package: gs-common

Severity: wishlist

When I use LaTeX/beamer to make a talk that includes a bunch of nice
crisp images they look great in the postscript produced by latex/dvips
but after running them through ps2pdf the images exhibit many
artifacts which look to me like the sort that result from JPEG
compression with aggressive parameters.

I wish there were a switch, documented in ps2pdf(1), to turn off any
and all lossy image compression in ps2pdf.

The wish is understandable.  However, I'm closing this as keeping non-
actionable bug reports makes reviewing the debian bts burdensom.  I would be 
open to a bug report with a suggested manpage change.
