If they convert to vector that is smaller, than changing them is good. If not, then keeping the bitmap version as jpeg and just wrapping it in an SVG container might be best.

recommends this simple type wrapper:

<svg version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" width="100%" height="100%" viewBox="0 0 592 900" preserveAspectRatio="xMidYMid meet"> <image width="592" height="900" xlink:href="images/page01.jpeg" /> </svg>
