#Python pil image resize quality windows#

Even if I start with the Paint-resized image (and therefore do not resize the image in PIL), it still saves it as the crappy quality 96 dpi (16kb) intead of keeping it as it is. The issue seems to be the saving, not the resizing. I'm guessing that the dpi needs to be set during resizing? The dpi is 180, but the resolution is still bad. I have tried: dpi = # (180, 180)īut it makes no difference. It is built on PIL (Python Image Library) by Alex Clark.

Syntax: Image. Which Libraries can be used for the Optimization of Images Pillow: This is a destructive image optimization library which means that it destroys the original copy of the image during optimization. Image.resize() Returns a resized copy of this image. The module also provides a number of factory functions, including functions to load images from files, and to create new images. I resize this using PIL: image = image.resize((new_width, new_height), Image.ANTIALIAS) The Image module provides a class with the same name which is used to represent a PIL image. I resize this using PIL: image image.resize ( (newwidth, newheight), Image.ANTIALIAS) image.save (filepath) I have tried: dpi 'dpi' (180, 180) image.save (filepath, dpi dpi) but it makes no difference. How do I maintain the dpi (or set it to some max that looks good on websites) (The paint-resized image is 40kb while the PIL resized image is 16kb) This Paint-resized image looks a lot better on my website.

If I resize the image in a program like Windows Paint then it maintains the 180 dpi. It lies in the range of 0 to 100 where 95 is considered as best because 100 disables some portions of jpeg compression algorithm that results very large files.

I see that it has changed the dpi from 180 to 96. Using quality Parameter: The image quality is a scale to measure and store the resolution of an image. This is the width that it will be shown on my website.

I have a large image, which I resize in PIL so that it is 250 pixels wide.
