Why are jpg conversions larger than original tif files?

Post by Harvey »

Am batch converting tif files I received from a friend to jpg files in Convert and Modify, with default Options: 90% Baseline; 4:2:2; Don't embed sRGB profile checked; no other embed metadata options checked; Store EXIF Preview 200x200 checked; Write JFIF header checked. jpg files are bigger than the original tifs; for example, tif of 1.2 MB makes a jpg of 1.5 MB. GC 8.6 (1200) Any comments? Thanks. Harvey

What about the quality? If it is 100% it will be bigger.--------------------------------------------------------Petur Rasmussen            e-mail: prasm@internet.is Sa�lheimum 23, 7A                     Tlf.: +354-553 2858 IS-104  Reykjava�k                        Mobil: +354-822 0645
