 You know about Filters-Enhance-Red eye removal, standard with
 GIMP 2.4, I hope?


No

Wasn't there!

Suspect it was removed during uninstalls of the old redeye.c :-(

Just rebuilt 2.4 and all is well again

Thank you

 Hi,

 I am a new user off GIMP and I like it..

 but how canI how to convert gimps xcf format to pdf..


If you are using windows, I don't know, but on a linux system you could
try a two part process, save as tiff or ps and then use tiff2pdf or one of
the ps2pdf programs

Re: [Gimp-developer] jpeg quality factor.

2007-07-06 Thread rcook

 Trying to be more specific: If I open an image from my digital camera
 with gimp, adjusts its levels or curves, and re-save it, the saved image
 is very deteriorated. If I do the same with Photoshop that doesn't happen.
 I think it's problem, but let me know if I'm wrong. At least I know that
 I must re-save images from other sources using a higher quality factor.


Interesting, what platform are you using?

Here if I can do say 10 re-saves at 85% quality, it produces no
discernible changes in picture quality.

In fact I have tried to prove that recompressing jpg pictures reduces the
picture quality and got bored doing it at 85% (which btw is the Gimp
default)

However I could degrade quality by repeatedly saving at some lower
quality, like 50%

Opinion.

You should never work on a jpeg, take it in off your camera, save it as an
xcf and when finished, recreate it as a jpeg if you want.
