goddi Posted October 22, 2022 Report Share Posted October 22, 2022 Greetings, I tried out the 'Export Slides to Images'. I'm just curious as to the file size of exporting a slide to jpg vs png. The original size of the slide is 425KB. When I export the slide as a jpg, the size is 668 KB. But when I export it as a png, the size is 3.77MBs. Just wondering why the huge difference in the size between the exported jpg and the png. Thanks...Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary, PNG is a lossless compression and for photos resulting file weights much more than JPEG. You can try to save the same picture in Photoshop and you will get a similar file size. For JPEG you can adjust Quality (compression) parameter to set a balance between a file size and visual quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goddi Posted October 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2022 Greetings Igor, What is strange to me is that the original size is only 425KB but the export to a png will balloon the size up to 3.77MBs. That is a bit hard to comprehend how the size can become so large from such a smaller file. I do see that Photoshop will produce similar results if a small jpg is saved as a png. Never noticed that before. Thanks... Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
