Topic: PNG Images Saved as JPG

I mostly use PNG because of their higher quality over JPG.

But the new JuiceboxBuilder-Pro saves the images as JPG.

I would expect that the builder should keep the image type.

Re: PNG Images Saved as JPG

When JuiceboxBuilder-Pro processes an image (whether to resize it or add a watermark), the new image will always be a .jpg (as you have discovered).

I would expect that the builder should keep the image type.

If you would like to suggest this for a future version of JuiceboxBuilder-Pro, then please post in the Feature Requests forum thread. This keeps all the suggestions together and ensures that they are not overlooked. Thank you.

If you want .png images in your output 'images' folder, you can deselect the 'Resize Images' checkbox (on the 'Images' tab) and your original .png files will be copied across to the gallery folder without being processed.

Please note that there is currently a known bug (which should hopefully be fixed in a future version) whereby a .png file being copied will end up in the 'images' folder with a .jpg file extension. However, the corresponding 'imageURL' entry in the 'config.xml' file matches and the images should be displayed OK in the gallery.
