Photoshop :: JPEG Quality Options For Print
Oct 16, 2006
I have been told that when sending my JPEGS to my PRO lab that I can save them with a JPEG image quality of 10 instead of the maximum of 12. They say that there is no difference in the 10 versus the 12 in print quality. Is this true or are they just telling me this to save capacity and space on their server? The bulk of my print sizes are in the range from 4x6 to 8x10. Why are there 12 quality options to choose from? What are the differences from low, medium, high and maximum?

I have 300dpi color images. Some have cloud with blue sky in them. When I look at them on the monitor they look fine. But, when printed on a color laser printer the sky has a somewhat orange cast. What can I do to fix this, if anything, and get the color laser print as accurate a reproduction of the digital image as possible?

I am new to photoshop and am curious to see what quality setting others use when saving photos as jpeg The size difference between saving at 10 and 12 is almost 3 times the size, I see no quality loss when saving at quality 10.
I have some photos that are original size of around 5mb, after editing the photos saving at quality 10 gives a file size of around 5mb while quality 12 a file size of around 12mb-15mb.

I'm in the process of cropping 5000 family pictures. They were all scanned on a flatbed with about 4 pictures per scan. I've realized that the cropped pictures are much larger in size than their original counterparts.
For example 45 of the original scans are 27MB in size, while those same pictures cropped (157 of them) are 156MB in size.
My action automatically saves the images at the maximum JPEG quality of 12. I'm wondering what the lowest i can lower the quality to is, while preserving the original scan quality of 300DPI?

I am trying to save a psd picture 125x500 picture. It is a simple gradient with nothing else in the picture. The psd saves with good quality. As soon as I save for web or even save as a jpeg or gif the quality is junky. Even with the jpeg file at maximum and not optiized there are chunky vertical lines. How can I fix this? The psd file is like 138k, but I can't save it more than 12k as a jpeg or gif.

Have a photograph which I have modified in wporkspace rgb/8. Looks great in
Photoshop with the exact colours I want.
If I now save in a jpeg or png format the resulting image is much lighter
and appears to have white speckles.
I then thought I'd try the save for web option and to my suprise I find that
on that screen my Original is not displayed as in my PS main screen but
rather as the pasty looking image I see after exporting.

When saving a jpeg it gives the option of inserting a number on quality. I have mine auto set to 10 but I have no idea whether 1 is better or worse or what number I should be putting in to preserve the original quality?

Print to JPEG in LR5.2 produces a corrupt JPEG file that cannot be opened.
Lightroom is running on MacPro. When printing I am attaching an ICC profile provided by the bureau that is going to produce the prtins. Having said this the file cannot be opened neither on a Mac nor on a Windows PC.
Up until now, i used to exported as TIFFs but after reading Jeff Schewe book The Digital Print i have become convinced that printing through LR to a file is much more efficient.

Sometimes when I save an image as a jpeg the dialog box defaults to a higher compression and lower image quality. I change it to the highest quality but when I save the next image it is again at the lower quality setting. How can I get it to default to the highest quality setting or at least stay at the last setting.

1) I scan an image and its 300dpi. when i open it in ps its 72dpi. what's happening?
2) When i create a new document/clipboard etc to start working, i only have the option to go up to 8bit or 16 bit RGB... Can't it go any higher? does this affect item1?
3) if i try to drag an image into this 16bit window it tells me the target document has a different depth than source document and it will result in lower than expected quality..... how can i avoid all this?
4) Sometimes i can save my psd as jpeg and sometimes i cant... I dont get that option...what's going on?

What is the best way to achieve lossless JPEG quality in Photoshop? Is setting the quality of the file to "maximum" essentially lossless? I've been using .png files a lot more, but some of my clients still don't welcome that format.

when saving an image as a JPEG I would click "Save As", select my folder and the Image Quality dialog box would pop up and I would then select 12/Maximum as the image quailty and hit "OK". Thereafter, every time I saved an image, Photoshop applied the same settings as the previous save i.e., 12/Maximum was pre-selected and I would just hit OK and move to my next image.
However, since yesterday Photoshop is no longer pre applying the last setting used and is defaulting to quality 8/High every time. Si everytime I save, I am now having to slide the slider to 12 which is kind of interrupting my work flow.
I have tried delete my preferences settings in the hope that this glitch would be fixed by resetting the program, but the problem persists.

In relation to Photoshop, in the status bar at the bottom it displays what it calls “document sizes”. How to clarify can this be used to determin the quality of a jpeg file ?
For example if I open up a jpeg with no compression (file size on disk is 4.57mb) it displays Doc:34.5M/34.5M however if I open the same file with compression set at 5 (file size on disk is 748kb) and ‘document size’ doesn’t change. How does the document size relate to jpeg compression etc...?

I am a little bit lost when reading discussions regarding the best way to have photos accepted by Istockphoto. They are extremely demanding about the quality of the pictures and they accept zero artifacts for example.
I read that any corrections made of a RAW picture in Lightroom 4 must be very minimal (almost no correction for saturation, vibrace, exposure, and sharpening, noise etc.).
In this case it would mean that Lightroom is of no use and whay not use directly Photoshop CS6 to convert the RAW photo into a high quality JPEG. If this is true, what are the best settings in CS6 to convert a RAW photo into a JPEG format ?

From what I can make of it, lossy is the option on GIF files, and therefore I am assuming that the optimisation is lossless for a JPEG at 100 percent quality and lossy when the quality is reduced?I just want to clarify that I am saving images for the web at the smallest size I can without losing too much quality.
All the images I save are 450px wide @ 75 dpi, but vary in length from 800px high to 1500px high, but have to be saved under 100kb. lossless and lossy in JPEG format in save for web?

I would like to modify the Quality setting shown in the "Shaded viewport options" section of the plot dialog box (see attachment). The default appears to be Normal, and the options are Draft, Preview, Normal, Presentation, Maximum, and Custom. I want to use Maximum for 11x17 PDF files but I have 1000's. I can't open each file and change the setting, and then Apply to Layout. I'd also like to know what "Custom" means, but I will settle for maximum for now.
Is this option available under PlotSettings somewhere?

I open an image in Photoshop CS3 and do a file / print to my HP laserjet 1300 black an white printer. The image prints out with a halftone pattern with little dots visible all over the place.
If I place the same image without any changes into Illustrator and do a file / print form there, the image comes out looking like a black and white photograph with none of the dots / halftone pattern of the photoshop image.
I want it to look like a photograph. I do not want the halftone / dots.
Maybe just some photoshop setting that I need in order to print nice looking images from Photoshop CS3 to this printer rather than having to get Illustrator involved?

Listing on ebay some clocks i do, looking at the latest requirements. They want a jpg image 1600 pixels on the longest size, ok its big but fair enough.
They also want it to be 90 on the 0-99 JPEG quality scale. Someone has shown me that scale in Ifranview but where do i find it in Corel Draw X4 blowed if i can find it, I don't really want to add another program just to sort this out, i am confident Corel Draw X4 can do it.

I'm using LR4.1 on Windows 7 64-bit and I'm running into something quite annoying; When I open a jpeg image in an external editor (in my case Nik Software Editors) and I choose to " Edit a copy with Lightroom Adjustments" and JPEG file format I end up with a much smaller size, lower quality file before it's even saved by the external editor. I can't seem to find any settings for the jpeg quality and I'm starting wonder if I'm missing something big here...
I have dug through the forums and google searches with no luck. I do prefer to work with RAW but some of the cameras I use only output JPEG and I don't want to make unecessary conversions to TIFF.

A website has done a feature article on our company and I would LOVE to print out a copy of this page. Using the standard browser print options makes the page a total mess.. I've downloaded the "Awesome Screenshot" plug in for chrome and got a decent print of it but it's still not ultra high quality.
