The JPEG has an embedded ICC color profile which GIMP ignores since it's a CMYK profile, but it keeps it around anyway and writes it to the JPEG if you resave it. To see the size of the attached color profile, first extract it: $ exiftool -icc_profile -b -w icc lightbulb.jpg Then look at how big it (and the image) is: $ du -hb lightbulb.* which gives the output 557168 lightbulb.icc 560484 lightbulb.jpg / Martin _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
