Hi, I've created a script using PIL that opens a JPEG image and saves it with another name. What happens is that the saved image's quality is gets very low, even if I set quality=100. Somebody already experienced such a problem? Knows how to achieve a better quality? Saving the image as PNG the quality is perfect, but the filesize gets huge.
The code I used was: from PIL import Image imagem = Image.open("original_file.jpg") imagem.save("file_saved_by_pil.jpg", "JPEG", quality=100, progressive=True) The original image file is: http://twitpic.com/g86ug And this is the one generated by PIL: http://twitpic.com/g8735 Pay attention that the original file has the text "conheça" legible and with a good filesize. The one generated by PIL has almost the same filesize but the text is illegible. My script will do more sutff then just open and save the image with another name: it will open two images, put one above the other and write some text on it. This was already achieved. The problem is just the quality. Thanks for the patience. --- Vinícius Mendes Computer Engineer http://meiocodigo.com/
