            Bug ID: 163737
           Summary: The image compression dialog box : new field "modify
                    the old resolution only if the new one is less than"
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.2.1.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: UI
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Interpolation algorithms (None, Bilinear, Bicubic, Lanczos) require a minimum
set of pixels in the vicinity of each pixel to be interpolated without
perceptible loss of quality.

I propose that this dialog get a new field like "modify the old resolution only
if the new one is less than" : [r].
The default "r" ratio could be 50%.

If you set 1000% for the "r" ratio with a 500 dpi old resolution and 600 dpi
new resolution, it will transform the image with a 600 dpi resolution.

If you set 50% for the "r" ratio and a new resolution to 200 dpi :
A. a 500 dpi old resolution will be changed into 200 dpi (because 200/500 <
50%)
B. a 300 dpi old resolution will be unchanged (because 200/300 > 50%)

In the B case, it prevents a loss of quality (because of interpolation
algorithms).

In the B case, you can still use this dialog box in order to convert an image
from one format to an other (but the resolution will remain the same).
