Philipp Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Hi, I hope I don't post a known issue: When saving an image as a JPG file I tried to set the quality to 0. Of course the image was indistinguishable, but it was still a rather big file size. (11.6 KB, see attachment) I compared the result with Photoshop 6. Saving the same image using the web optimization wizard (Alt+Shift+Ctrl+S) I got a better looking and smaller JPG (3.5 KB). Have you got any idea what went wrong?

BoltBait Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 My SWAG would be meta data. Try this test: 1) open the desired file. 2) Select all, copy 3) paste into a new window 4) save the new window with quality 0 This will remove almost all (if not all) meta data from the image. What is the resulting size? Quote Download: BoltBait's Plugin Pack | CodeLab | and a Free Computer Dominos Game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philipp Posted September 29, 2009 Author Share Posted September 29, 2009 Great! Thank you very much for your solution! Maybe somebody could add a checkbox "remove meta data" within the save dialogue in a future release 8) Kind regards, Philipp Quote Thank you for the music ... aaaeehm Paint.NET Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
