Hi,

I'm trying to write a manual using IQ, needing to export and distribute later, and the quality of the images pasted on Doc Pane is a bit degraded for that purpose, probably because of the default compression applied by IQ. Also, considering the defaults, the image is stored in JPG.

a) Does IQ provide a setting to allow pasting images in PNG format?

If it is possible to paste as PNG the degradation would be avoided.

b) If it is not possible to store as PNG, is there any way to set the JPG compression applied by IQ?

If it is possible to set the compression level, I'd like to set quality to 100% (no compression) when writing content for distribution (manuals, tutorials, etc.).

Thank you,

Carlos

Hi Carlos,

Option 1.6.14 is for image quality, enter 100%, that should help

Hi Pierre,

Thanks for the reply. This is the setting I was looking for.

I performed some tests varying the quality from the default 80% to 85%, 90%, 95% and 100%.

For my surprise, the file sizes generated were very close to each other, you almost could neglect the difference.

Why not set the default quality from 80% to at least 90% or 95%?

Best,
