That is what I use.  I would not call it simple though.  But I guess it
might be.
I love the program,  especially the batch editor. but that is not a Legacy
issue  :-)

If you use the free Irfanview, there is a menu option for lossless rotation 
(with one of its plugins - just download them all):

Options > JPG Lossless Rotation

Re: [LegacyUG] Photos

2019-10-28 Thread Chris Hill
The problem with loss of quality saving JPG images is inherently 
built into the design of the JPG structure. That said, there are a 
couple of options.


1. If saving as JPG, the usual is to always ensure that you keep the 
quality level to Maximum. I have just looked a marriage record, 
downloaded from Ancestry, with Photoshop CS5 and used Save As to JPG. 
The Quality is defaulting to 8 (High) but can be raised to 12 (Maximum). 
The original file was sized as being 363KB; High suggests a size of 602K 
and Maximum suggests a size of 1300KB. The implication of that is that 
the original image was only at Quality size 3 (Low). I just created a 
Quality 12 version and did a Difference match against the original. Also 
saved it as Quality 3 and did compared that against the Quality 12 and 
the original versions. In all of the tests it did not show any 
differences that were visible. I rather suspect that it would be 
different if it was a full colour photograph.


2.The general rule with editing JPG images is to first convert it to 
a non-compressed image, such as .TIFF or .PSD. Then do all of the work 
on that and finally save it again to a .JPG.


I rather suspect that the quality of JPG editing is better now than 
it used to be. Certainly I can recall hearing about a photo being saved 
in JPG which removed the Red lights on the top of masts. Problems like 
this will generally happen if you make a number of edits to JPGs with 
multiple save and reopen steps between them, and more so if you use Low 
Quality.


Regards

Chris

I rotate pictures simply by right-clicking on the picture in Explore
and selecting to rotate right or rotate left.  No need to save it
either.
