Compress PNG Images in C#
For PNG images, you can set the compression level from 0 to 9, where 9 is the maximum compression and 0 is store mode. The following steps outline how to compress a PNG image using Aspose.Imaging for .NET.
- Load the image using the Image class.
- Create an object of the PngOptions class.
- Set the compression level using the PngOptions.CompressionLevel property.
- Save the image using the Image.Save(String, PngOptions) method.
The following C# example demonstrates how to compress PNG images:
Compress JPEG Images in C#
To handle JPEG images, Aspose.Imaging for .NET provides the JpegOptions class, which offers various compression types for JPEG images, including:
- Baseline
- Progressive
- Lossless
- JpegLs
Follow these steps to compress JPEG images:
- Load the JPEG image using the Image class.
- Create an object of the JpegOptions class.
- Set the color mode using the JpegOptions.ColorType property.
- Set the compression type using the JpegOptions.CompressionType property.
- Save the image using the Image.Save(String, JpegOptions) method.
The following C# example shows how to compress a JPEG image:
Apply Compression on TIFF Images in C#
Aspose.Imaging for .NET provides a wide range of compression types for TIFF images, including LZW, Packbits, and CCIT Fax 3 & 4. You can select the appropriate type based on your requirements. The following steps outline how to compress a TIFF image:
- Load the TIFF image using the Image class.
- Create an object of the TiffOptions and initialize it with the TiffExpectedFormat.Default enum value.
- Set BitsPerSample, Compression, Photometric mode, and Palette for the TIFF image.
- Save the image using the Image.Save(String, TiffOptions) method.
The following C# example demonstrates how to compress TIFF images:
