Re: Optimizing photographs in Xara---data loss to original files?
Hi Capn.
All images that I add to XWD have been optimized to the image quality and file size that I want. If I specify "JPEG Quality 100%" under Web image type, will the file size of the image remain the same or will it create a larger file size?
I believe it does indeed increase the file size dramatically. To test it yourself:
Draw a square and give it a fractal plasma fill.
Create a bitmap copy.
Export as an 80% jpg.
Import this back into Xara
Export as a 100% jpg
Notice how the final export is far larger than the 80% one, although it won't have any greater detail than the 80% one.
At least that's my findings. I can never see the point of using 100% jpg's in the first place either.
