I'll admit up front to not having followed the conversation so far. What quality levels you use on JPEG depends heavily on the type of data you are wanting to store, you quality requirements, space requirements, etc. As an example (worked up for a map conversation)
http://broggs.org/~mcbeth/CivMap.png http://broggs.org/~mcbeth/CivMap.jpg The point of the demonstration was to show that JPEG isn't always smaller, and that it isn't always appropriate for your data. The newer JPEG preview in the GIMP save dialog helps a lot in making those kinds of decisions. If I am completely off topic, I'm sorry, I have to deal with inappropriate uses of JPEG files all the time in my work :( Jeff ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
