Not quite what you want, but after struggling with PIL, and other libraries
for some simple-to-moderately complex image processing, we have chosen
to simply use ImageMagick via popen. Imagemagick is fully featured, at least
as far as we are concerned. You could use it to convert SVG to PDF, and
scale the image in the process.
