The compression for JPG does not seem to be very good. I have exported the same exact image at 80% from Fireworks and from Paint.net. Fireworks gave me a file at 12.7K. Paint.net gave me an image of 63.5K. I tried 70% in Paint.net incase the percentages were different. This time the file was still high at 61.5K, and the quality was now unacceptable.
This is a big difference, especially when the images are being used on the Web. Are there any plans to improve this? I have searched the forum and the roadmap and don't see anything about it. Maybe I'm doing something incorrectly?
