Aspose.Imaging for Python
Overview
How to Compress JPG Images and Photos with Python
The adapting of images for publishing includes not only creative processes but also technical adjustments, such as file compression. Generally, high-resolution images are necessary for printed materials or outdoor advertising, whereas websites may face challenges with large file sizes. Image compression settings can vary depending on their intended use and where they will be published. Large files can take a considerable amount of time to download, especially on mobile connections, impacting the overall user experience. However, overly compressed images might suffer from blurriness and visible pixelation, undermining the visual quality. Achieving a balance between file size and image quality requires a careful selection of algorithms and compression levels. To compress images in JPG format, we’ll employ Aspose.Imaging for Python via .NET API which is a feature-rich, powerful and easy to use image manipulation and conversion API for Python platform. You may install it using the following command from your system command.
The system command line
>> pip install aspose-imaging-python-net

About Aspose.Imaging for Python API
Aspose.Imaging API is an image processing solution to create, modify, draw or convert images (photos) within applications. It offers: cross-platform Image processing, including but not limited to conversions between various image formats (including uniform multi-page or multi-frame image processing), modifications such as drawing, working with graphic primitives, transformations (resize, crop, flip&rotate, binarization, grayscale, adjust), advanced image manipulation features (filtering, dithering, masking, deskewing), and memory optimization strategies. It’s a standalone library and does not depend on any software for image operations. One can easily add high-performance image conversion features with native APIs within projects. These are 100% private on-premise APIs and images are processed at your servers.Compress JPG via Online App

JPG What is JPG File Format
A JPEG is a type of image format that is saved using the method of lossy compression. The output image, as result of compression, is a trade-off between storage size and image quality. Users can adjust the compression level to achieve the desired quality level while at the same time reduce the storage size. Image quality is negligibly affected if 10:1 compression is applied to the image. The higher the compression value, the higher the degradation in image quality.
