[Gimp-user] Tiff compression options

2005-04-16 Thread cedric
Reading Tiff specs for Scribus Team, we saw that Tiif could have JPEG compression. We add a simple question : is gimp implementation of Tiff jpeg compression lossless ? And in which case use one or another compression options ? regards. Cedric ___

jpeg compression is lossy by definition. There is no such thing as lossless jpeg compression. Personally, I only LZW (which is lossless) for tiff. I cannot think of any reason why you would ever want to use jpeg compression for a tiff over a straight jpeg format. I've had zero experience
