(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Prem27 370

Hi,

due to some business requirements i want that, whenever an image is attached it gets compressed to a size of 60 KB or less, now what approach shall i follow.

I have tried using a plugin,on post-operation stage and create message for annotation this plugin is registered.

I retrieve the image which i am trying to insert, plugin returns me a base64String , now i need to compress this base64 which i tried doing using System.IO.Compressor but the compressed base64 does not render.

Any suggestions on this.

    Hi,

    What type of files do you want to compress please? If this is an image, you can try to use bitmap class to resize image to lower size.

    Hope this helps

    Jpeg Compress allows you to compress your photos as much as possible without sacrificing quality or detail. You can even reduce their size on any device.

    Consider using a library specifically designed for this task. Libraries like ImageProcessor for .NET, Pillow for Python, or other similar tools in your language of choice can be more effective. These libraries provide more control over the compression process and maintain a balance between size reduction and image quality. 
    When you convert images to a base64 string, the size usually increases by about 33%. If your requirement to keep the base64 string under 60 KB is strict, you'll need to compress the image further to account for this increase.
