I would first suggest to find out if PNG support is even part of the
regular PDF options. Some suggests not, some suggest 256 colors are
(without transparency).
this file from ~2008 suggest pdf can have jpeg variants or zip compression for "streams" with some pre-filtering?
here is github:
warning, contain python 2.x
there are other tools using perl + ghostscript.... Or even something with dotnet!
But I guess html version can benefit from smaller pngs too?
