In this Demo Project there is a PNG and JPEG represenation of the same PDF file (added for reference) which are Combined into a single Tiff thanks to the Combine Artwork Resolution Artwork build setting.

It seems the Lempel-Ziv and Welch encoding is not doing a great job with JPEGs, as the size of the resulting j-gruene.png file is as big as the size of the PNGs, which, obviously, defies the purpose of using a JPG.
