I am scanning old files and papers for archiving (and shredding the

dcx format (and back to jpg). This reduced the image file from 1MB to
abojut 55-60KB.
Can anyone suggest a similar sort of conversion methodology which I
can use on Fedora? I have no idea what programs are available which
might be capable of these sorts of conversions.
What software are you using to scan with? You should be able to pick a
resolution and line art mode to do that sort of thing in one go.
