Maxonian Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Hi all. I'm a new boy at this and need to limit an imported scanned image to 250mb so it can be pasted into another forum. Is there a way this can be done easily during the save function on Paint.NET? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frontcannon Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 My first guess would be to resize the image, but there's always the quality slider when saving. Use a lossy image format like .jpg!

Maxonian Posted January 7, 2011 Author Share Posted January 7, 2011 Thanks. I will see if the site will accept .jpg. I got into Paint.NET at the recommendation of the site itself and then when scanning cannot get a file small enough for them to accept.

Use a lossy image format like .jpg! Many thanks for the advice. Now working perfectly with resized .jpg files. M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
