[Digikam-users] File weight different in Digikam than in other file management tools

[Marie-Noëlle Augendre]

Hi Gilles,

In fact, the choice is not mine: I was requested to upload a picture with
the largest dimension equal to 1024px, and picture weight less than 300Ko.
So I had to run the JPEG conversion several times, decreasing the quality
every time, in order to satisfy the maximum weight.
And once I had succeeded in going below 300Ko, I discovered when uploading
that it was still too much...

I had no idea there were other parameters than the usual quality slider.
Thanks for the information, but I don't know what I'm going to do with it!
:D
