Embedded documents: always png?

I had to create a 5-page document. Each page is a full-page .jpg that
is less than 80k. Yet when I export to .pdf it is 22MB! .doc is about
the same. So I was unable to send the document via email. (happily, in
this case I just send the images in an email and abandoned the document
entirely)

It appears that Abiword automatically converts my tiny .jpg into a
full-sized .png and I cannot find a way to change this behaviour.

Is there a better way to export documents containing graphics?
