2. Help : How to reduce colors for saving a JPEG as PNG

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:How_to_reduce_colors...

   If the new version is too sharp, you can utilize the blur filter or tool to fix this, or use Colors > Levels to mess with the Alpha channel. Once it looks correct, save the image as a PNG. Then, to reduce file size, run it through a program like ImageMagick that supports 8-bit PNGs with alpha transparency, in order to remove any unnecessary ...

3. Quantization (image processing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantization_(image...

   When the number of discrete symbols in a given stream is reduced, the stream becomes more compressible. For example, reducing the number of colors required to represent a digital image makes it possible to reduce its file size. Specific applications include DCT data quantization in JPEG and DWT data quantization in JPEG 2000.

4. Lossy compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lossy_compression

   This can be avoided by only producing lossy files from (lossless) originals and only editing (copies of) original files, such as images in raw image format instead of JPEG. If data which has been compressed lossily is decoded and compressed losslessly, the size of the result can be comparable with the size of the data before lossy compression ...

5. pngcrush - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pngcrush

   It reduces the size of the file losslessly – that is, the resulting "crushed" image will have the same quality as the source image. The main purpose of pngcrush is to reduce the size of the PNG IDAT data stream by trying various combinations of compression methods and delta filters.

6. Image conversion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_conversion

   Like any resampling operation, changing image size and bit depth are lossy in all cases of downsampling, such as 30-bit to 24-bit or 24-bit to 8-bit palette-based images. While increasing bit depth is usually lossless, increasing image size can introduce aliasing or other undesired artifacts.

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Preparing_images...

   Compressing drawings or diagrams with JPEG results in an image of poor quality, because the human eye can spot the compression artifacts around the edges. Another drawback is the large file size you will end up with. JPEG compression has many options but most commonly only two colour spaces: 24-bit RGB (8 bits per sample) and 8-bit greyscale.
