If you use "save as" and set the extension to jpg, it will ask you  
for the quality level of the saved jpeg file. You can click the  
preview check-box to see what you are doing. Just near this box you  
can see the size of the generated file. Change the quality with the  
ruler until the size is near what you want. (the size update is not  
really real time but this is not a problem).

Can you open the file in GIMP?
If so, just right click on the image, choose FILE, Save as, 
filename.jpg (which may be the same name, or another name, but has to 
end in .jpg). 
After that you will be presented  a dialog box where you can choose 
the quality setting .  Reduce it, and the final size of the image 
will change.

JS

[Gimp-user] Reducing file size

2003-12-17 Thread cbnrm.biz 



I have a jpg file, a photo, that I need to reduce from 152 K 
to max. 30 K before I can upload it to a web site. I was advised to do this with 
GIMP. However, as a complete novice I can't figure out how to do it. Can 
somebody pls give me some pointers?
