<pre wrap="">If the other method didn't work, I think that I once used GIMP to
convert a PNG to a PDF. It's worth a try.
Even so, assuming that you can convert each PNG to a PDF, I can
recommend this command line program (PDF tool kit....aka pdftk) for
gluing together many individual PDFs into one PDF. I was using it on a
Windows machine, but it seems like it comes also with Mac installer, and
possibly Linux may have a package.
If you are going to use it, read their example page, and possibly their
man page, first.
Not that hard to set up and get going.

If there is better free alternative out there for Linux (or
cross-platform), please let me know. :-)

I've got a folder of png files that I want to turn into a multi-page pdf
with letter-sized pages.
I'm currently trying to use imagemagick, but the resulting PDF is smaller
than it should be. I've posted a message on ImageMagick's forums,[1] but
I'm wondering if I'm not just using the wrong tool in the first place.
Does anyone have a better tool to be using for this?
Thanks,
Michael Moore

You need to do it in two steps:
convert *.png test.mng
convert test.mng test.pdf
This is how I did my security comic book. The only gotcha is to check the
page order with an "ls *.png" first. I had to preface each file with the
pagenumber (00 - 24) to get them in the right order.
