Set the “Scaling” option to “no scaling”.The “Quality” slider takes precedence over the file size limit if the target quality size is larger than the file size limit setting. We want the quality as low as possible so that the file size limit can take over control. Now move the “Quality” slide all the way to the left (low).Check the box for “Limit file size to” and set the value to 3.Choose the “to fit box” option under “Scaling” and set the value to 3,000.Įxample 2: Now we’re going to create a JPEG file at a maximum file size of 3 MB, without changing the pixel dimensions:.Move the “Quality” slider position all the way to the right side (high).Uncheck the box for “Limit file size to”.
In the “Save As” dialog, you will find controls for quality, file size limits, and scaling. Below are a few examples that will hopefully give you a better idea of how our “Save As” dialog works.Įxample 1: Let’s say we wanted to create a JPEG file of maximum file size and scale the largest pixel dimension 3,000 pixels: This utility will allow you to create a new JPEG, allowing you to crop and resize the pixel dimensions, or change the compression level. This utility will extract the embedded JPEG preview as it is in the file, without recompressing it, so it’s lossless.
This #WorkflowWednesday, we wanted to share how to utilize Photo Mechanic to convert RAW to JPEG and still get a size you can use.
