Broken Hope Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 When saving Jpegs with bright red in them somtimes this red colour becomes blurry. In Irfanview there is an option called disable color subsampling that resolves this issue? Would it be possible to have an option for this in Paint.net, or perhaps have it enabled at higher quality settings? Here's an example of what I'm talking about. Original image. Saved at 90% in Irfanview with disable color subsampling checked Saved in Paint.net at 90% (Note the quality of the red text is horrible) Here's a picture of the option in Irfanview.

Lance McKnight Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 My question is, have you ever tried to save your image file as PNG? I prefer it over JPEG since it's a lossy file, whereupon PNG is a lossless file. Quote Officially retired from this forum. Have a nice day.

I realise PNG would get around this issue, but it still doesn't change the fact that another image viewer has options that fix this problem with JPEG's and Paint.net doesn't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PineappleQc Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 90% in IrfanView is not necessarily the same as 90% in PDN. Can you compare the sizes of the both images? Other than that,try saving at 100%, or in .png (really, jpeg sucks for text). Other than that, have a read here: http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?showtopic=15554 Quote "Ah, i love it when huge pineapples try to take over the world, it makes me sentimental :')" -Stephan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's due to Chroma Subsampling. Photoshot and Irfanview allow this to be disabled, PDN doesn't, I'd like the option to disable it.

pyrochild Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 If Paint.NET ever gets a settings dialog as blindingly horrific as that, I will quit Paint.NET and this forum forever. It sounds like you prefer IrfanView's JPG algorithm over Paint.NET's. So IrfanView for saving JPGs... Quote ambigram signature by Kemaru [i write plugins and stuff] If you like a post, upvote it!
