I prefer not to, because of several reasons:
- it depends on 3.1 features.
- It forces the examination of all added images.
   Examining is a waste of time for me, since I do not use JPEG, only PNG.
- I want the user to know and understand what he is doing.
   You do, but most will not (or so I think at first sight).
   By forcing them to enable some options, they will at least think about it.
   (or so I hope ;) )

In each case, for an advanced user as you, I would expect that the first
thing you do is create a TOndrejPDFDocument subclass (or whatever the name). 
You can set all options there to defaults that you like. 
(I subclass all components I use for exactly such reasons)
