Newbie: JPG puzzle?
ABC writes:
Is there any way I can keeep jpg file at the same size? This is any 170K jpg. All I did was to have flipped it horizontally . It then saved as a 340K file at 100%. I thought, for flipping, the software only re-arranged the pixels. What can i do if I want to keep jpg at small size? What software did you use, and what exact command? Ordinary photo-editing software doesn't support the lossless rotation capabilities mostly; that's mostly supported in viewing and organizing software (like Irfan View and Thumbs Plus). If you do use the lossless rotation commands, the file size changes *very* little (I don't understand why it changes *at all*, but in my experience it does; but only very little, like 1% or something). I *think* what you did was opened the file in a photo-editor, flipped it, and then re-saved at top jpeg quality. I suspect the file *wasn't* at top jpeg quality originally, and that explains the increase in size. does it mean only the original JPG is the smallest? Nothing too magical about the original. -- David Dyer-Bennet, , http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/ RKBA: http://noguns-nomoney.com/ http://www.dd-b.net/carry/ Pics: http://dd-b.lighthunters.net/ http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/ Dragaera/Steven Brust: http://dragaera.info/ |
