I am using php to resize and crop images. However the cropped image file is greater than ( much greater in some cases) than the original file. I even tried without cropping (copying the original image) but the resulting size is more than the original image.
$ImageName = '/IMAGES/testImage.jpg';
//Download the Image File
$base_url = 'https://image.jimcdn.com/app/cms/image/transf/none/path/sa6549607c78f5c11/image/ia62ed3191fcc424f/version/1457278719/athens-european-best-destinations.jpg';
$image_size = getimagesize($base_url);
$image_width = $image_size[0];
$image_height = $image_size[1];
$src_image = imagecreatefromjpeg($base_url);
//Copy Image Object To File
imagejpeg($src_image, $ImageName, 100);
Technically, the quality rate of the conversion is not derivable from
the jpeg data, it just tells the converter which tradeoff to make
between size and quality.
Some converters store it in the EXIF data of the JPEG header though,
so if that is still present you can use it with exif_read_data on it,
and see if the compression information is returned.

try to reduce quality and set 80 for example. Quality will be still ok, it's even higher then default quality which should be 75 if you set nothing.
So, put like this:
imagejpeg($src_image, $ImageName, 80);
I think you can try this ImageCopyResampled in this case if you want to keep every pixel like original image. It's slower but better than imagejpeg.
And about quality of image using imagejpeg the quaility property refers to how much jpeg compression you want to apply to the saved or created output image.
0% quality means maximum compression and 100% quality means minimum compression.
The more compression you apply, the smaller the output filesize will be relative to the original uncompressed filesize.
Just exclude the image quality parameter:
imagejpeg($src_image, $ImageName);
GD will automatically create a smaller image for you

I have an eps. I want to make an jpg out of it. I tried everything, but the quality is too bad.
I think imagick takes the original size of the file, makes an jpg, and then makes it bigger without any compression. The problem is, the generated image of the eps is in bad quality, and the bigger image is totally bad.
Here are some configurations I tried:
$imagick = new \Imagick();
$imagick->readImage($imagePath);
$imagick->flattenImages();
$imagick->resizeImage(1024, 0, \Imagick::FILTER_LANCZOS, 1);
$imagick->setImageResolution(300, 300);
$imagick->setImageCompressionQuality(100);
$imagick->setImageCompression(\Imagick::COMPRESSION_JPEG);
$imagick->setCompressionQuality(100);
$imagick->setImageFormat('jpeg');
$imagick->writeImage($new_imagePath);
Can anyone help me with this? I don't get it.
You'll need to set the image density/resolution before you read the Encapsulated PostScript file.
$imagick = new \Imagick();
$imagick->setResolution(100); // or 300
$imagick->readImage($imagePath);
Also note that, by nature, EPS is a vector format, and JPEG is a lossy raster format. Rendering at a low dpi, and resizing up to a given size will always result in poor quality. Either render at a high-dpi & downsample to a given size, or render at expected size & omit any resizing.
I'm trying to set up a simple PHP image server to allow me to add just large file for each of my images and then scale and crop them as needed. For my test file I start with a png8 exported via "save for web" from illustrator of size 2400 x 1200, which has a filesize of 21.6KB.
When I use Imagick's cropThumbnailImage function to reduce it to 600 x 600 the resulting file is 62.1KB (three times the size for a substantially smaller image). A 600 x 600 crop of the same image saved from illustrator clocks in at about 8.2KB. I can accept a modest file size increase for the added convenience, but an ~8x increase is just too much.
When saving the file I make sure to force the output to png8 so it doesn't default to a lossless png format, but other than that I'm clueless as to how to resolve it.
Here is my processing code:
//create working image
$image = new Imagick( $this->orig_file );
// Set Compression
$image->setImageCompressionQuality( 9 );
//scale image to height
$image->cropThumbnailImage ( $this->w, $this->h );
// strip extra data
$image->stripImage();
// save file
$image->writeImage( 'png8:'.$this->output_file );
Here are my test files:
Original Full scale image outputted by illustrator.
Cropped 600 x 600 image generated by imagick.
[EDIT: As per Mark's suggestion below I added the following changes]
// replacing cropThumbnailImage with:
$image->resizeImage(0, $this->h, imagick::FILTER_TRIANGLE, 1);
// crop
$start = ($image->getImageWidth() / 2) - ($this->w / 2);
$image->cropimage($this->w, $this->h, $start, 0);
// reduce colors to 20
$image->quantizeImage($this->q, 1, 0, true, false); // using 20 as $this->q
The end result goes from 62.1KB to 50.4KB, better but still over double the size of the fullsized image, and many times larger that the illustrator save for web version at that size.
600x600 image reduced to 20 colors and resized not thumbnailed
Your original image has 33 colours and weighs in at 22kB.
If you resize like this (albeit at the command line):
convert jabba.png -resize 600x600 -strip png8:result.png
the output file will be 6.6kB.
If you resize like I suggested with -scale:
convert jabba.png -scale 600x600 -strip png8:result.png
the output file will be 5.0kB.
If you retain -quality 9 in there, you will end up with > 25kB.
I'm making an image sharing website with php. I was reading about google's pagespeed, and they said I needed to optimize my images, so I've been trying to do that with imagejpeg, then hopefully I'll be able to use basically the same code with png and gif.
This is the code I have at the moment:
$img = imagecreatefromjpeg($original);
if ($extension === "jpg" || $extension === "jpeg"){
$location = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . "/uploads/" . $id . "/fullsize." . $extension;
$temp = fopen($location, 'w');
imagejpeg($img, $location, 80);
fclose($temp);
}
And it does the job of taking the image at $original, and saving a copy that's been through imagejpeg to $location.
But sometimes the resulting file is larger than the original was! This is where I get stumped.
Why is this happening?
How can I make it stop happening?
I'm trying to reduce image file sizes without hurting their appearance, is there a better way to do it than this?
Thanks,
Liam
imagejpeg will only shrink the file if you save it at a lower quality setting than the original was produced with
e.g.
imagejpeg($gd, 'temp.jpg', 50);
$temp = imagecreatefromjpeg('temp.jpg');
imagejpeg($gd, 'temp2.jpg', 70);
will probably produce a larger temp2 file, because it's at a higher quality setting, which roughly translates to "don't compress as much".
There's no way to predict what the final output size will be for a given image and quality setting without actually going through the whole jpeg compress process. You may have to do a few trial recompresses of an image and lower the quality setting each time until you start getting some shrinkage.
of course, if you lower the quality TOO low, you'll basically trash the image and definitely introduce visible artifacts.
It definitely depends on the quality of the original image. If your image is quality 60 originally, saving at quality 80 will generally result in a larger file size.
However, it also depends on what software created the original image. For example, I've observed many times where Adobe Photoshop can save an image at quality 60 that looks as good as 80 from GD (the graphics library you are using). Also, Photoshop can often save images at the same quality as another graphics package but with a smaller size. This is subjective, of course. I'm not necessarily concluding Photoshop is "better," but it does appear to have it's options well tuned.
I recommend you try ImageMagick, as I've seen it generally do a better job (file sizes, image quality) than GD. You should also determine the original quality setting per image so you don't accidentally grow images.
I have been doing some tests and found out that Imagemagick creates larger file sized images compared to GD library.
I have tried using thumbnailImage method and also resizeImage method (with different filters) of Imagemagick for creating an image of max dimension 1024x680 jpeg with JPEG compression and quality 80 and at 72 pixels per inch resolution and am also using stripImage method to remove unneeded meta data. The file size created by Imagemagick is always in the range of 700KB to 800KB depending upon various filters. On the other hand GD library produces an image of size 1024x680 which is only 41KB in size.
Can anyone please explain the difference in file sizes. I opened up the 2 files in Photo shop and checked to see any differences but could not find any (DPI, color profile, 8 bit channel etc), but still cant explain the difference in file sizes.
$srgbPath = "pathTosrgbColorProfile";
$srgb = file_get_contents($srgbPath);
$image->profileImage('icc', $srgb);
$image->stripImage();
$image->setImageResolution(72,72);
$image->setImageUnits(1);
$image->setInterlaceScheme(Imagick::INTERLACE_JPEG);
$image->setImageCompression(imagick::COMPRESSION_JPEG);
$image->setImageCompressionQuality(80);
$image->setColorspace(imagick::COLORSPACE_SRGB);
$image->resizeImage($thumb_width,$thumb_nheight,imagick::FILTER_CATROM,1);
$image->writeImage($destination);
The size went down by 40KB giving an output of 711KB which is still pretty big. The Hi-res original file I am testing on is a jpeg of size 3008x2000 (4.2MB).
Edit:
I think I figured it out, the method setCompression() does it for the Object and not the image, instead I used setImageCompression() and setImageCompressionQuality() and now the size has reduced to 100KB.. All good now!
Maybe the Quality settings of GD and ImageMagick aren't easily comparable, 80% in one does not mean the same as 80% in the other. I found the following note in an article form Smashing Magazine:
It turns out that JPEG quality scales are not defined in a specification or standard, and they are not uniform across encoders. A quality of 60 in Photoshop might be the same as a quality of 40 in one program, quality B+ in another and quality fantastico in a third. In my tests, I found that Photoshop’s 60 is closest to -quality 82 in ImageMagick.
So you may pay more attention on quality when comparing the different result files. Maybe the colors differ or the gd image has more artifacts.
The differnce seems rather large; when I did some tests a couple of years ago the file size of IM was about 5x the size of GD.
It would be interesting to see your actual code used.
I am at work at the moment but have a photo resized to 592 x 592 and the filesize is 50.3KB I know it is not the same size as yours but it was saved at quality 100
You can run this and see what IM says about the output files:
convert image -verbose -identify
EDIT:
You must be doing something wrong I have just run a test and the results are below - For some reason the thumbnail size is the same as the resize size! Maybe a bug.
Original file size: 4700 x 3178 2.31MB
-resize dimensions = 1021 x 680 186kb
-thumbnail dimensions = 1021 x 680 186kb
GD dimensions = 1024 x 682 100kb
$original = 'IMG_4979_1.CR2';
// Convert to jpg as GD will not work with CR2 files
exec("convert $original image.jpg");
$image = "image.jpg";
exec("convert $image -resize 1024x680 output1.jpg");
exec("convert $image -thumbnail 1024x680 -strip output2.jpg");
// Set the path to the image to resize
$input_image = 'image.jpg';
// Get the size of the original image into an array
$size = getimagesize( $input_image );
// Set the new width of the image
$thumb_width = "1024";
// Calculate the height of the new image to keep the aspect ratio
$thumb_height = ( int )(( $thumb_width/$size[0] )*$size[1] );
// Create a new true color image in the memory
$thumbnail = ImageCreateTrueColor( $thumb_width, $thumb_height );
// Create a new image from file
$src_img = ImageCreateFromJPEG( $input_image );
// Create the resized image
ImageCopyResampled( $thumbnail, $src_img, 0, 0, 0, 0, $thumb_width, $thumb_height, $size[0], $size[1] );
// Save the image as resized.jpg
ImageJPEG( $thumbnail, "output3.jpg" );
// Clear the memory of the tempory image
ImageDestroy( $thumbnail );
I'm using the script below to create an JPG based on people uploading an image. What happens is that even if an image is the exact same width/height it still loses quality so much that it's unacceptable.
$im = imagecreatefromjpeg($_FILES['cpicture']['tmp_name']);
$thumb=imagecreatetruecolor(507,307);
ImageCopyResampled($thumb,$im,0,0,0,0,$newwidth,$newheight,ImageSX($im),ImageSY($im));
ImagejpeG($thumb,"uploads/".$randomvalue.".jpg");
$imgurl="uploads/".$randomvalue.".jpg";
Are these functions reducing the quality?
imagejpeg's third parameter is the quality of the image to be output:
quality is optional, and ranges from 0 (worst quality, smaller file) to 100 (best quality, biggest file). The default is the default IJG quality value (about 75).
Try changing the relevant line of your code to:
ImagejpeG($thumb,"uploads/".$randomvalue.".jpg", 100);
JPEG always loses quality because it is a lossy compressor.
If you don't want that, use e.g. png.
Yeah or set the quality of the output to 100:
ImagejpeG($thumb,"uploads/".$randomvalue.".jpg", 100);
