convert the image to eps. include it in the lout.
maybe rmagick can do this. if not use convert.

Rather, convert the image to png or jpeg, and use pdfTeX...

tex is for wussies
real men (and gals) use lout

I can't help right now, but I believe that PDF::Writer 0.2.0 (when
it's released ... soon) should be able to help with this, finally. I'm
going through and applying a number of bugfixes that are needed and
other enhancements.
