Best way to convert JPEG page images to PDF

The Bodleian Library in Oxford have recently digitised and made available online a number of their old books. The only way to download them, however, is as a ZIP file of individual JPEG images. I want to convert these to PDF to read on my iPad (they're page scans, so PDF makes sense).

What I've done so far is to rename all the images in the ZIP file to reflect the correct page order, renamed the ZIP file with a ".cbz" extension, and then used Calibre to convert from CBZ to PDF. This works pretty well, but I was wondering if there were any settings I should be using to optimize the process? What, for example, does the "Disable comic processing" setting do?

I've never done this type of conversion before, so all advice would be welcome!

Thanks,
