This could be due to the color profile or the fact that the input is 444. Can 
you try '-pre 4' to see if it helps in this case?

the color change is mostly due to the yuv444->yuv420 downsampling.
Using the '-pre 4' option helps in that case, by using a 'smart' converter for 
yuv420,
albeit a slower one than the default.

Attached, the result from 'cwebp input_jpg.jpg -pre 4 -o output_pre4_webp.webp'
(using code at HEAD)

Thank you for looking at this. The -pre 4 option seems to correct the red 
letters, however the blue letters now show shades of red that do not exist in 
the input.

the color bleeding seems to be an "expected" chroma compression artifact, that 
one starts to see when quality setting is getting lower. Chroma plane is 
quantized more aggressively than luma one, and in this particular case (thin 
blue features over a white background) its shows more prominently than usual.

I tried raising the quality to -q 90, and the effect is less pronounced (while 
the file size is still reasonable).
See example attached.

That looks great, pascal.  Do you know when -pre 4 is going into a release? 
It's disabled in 0.4.3, because of the flag in encode.h

#define WEBP_ENCODER_ABI_VERSION 0x0202    // MAJOR(8b) + MINOR(8b)

There's ongoing work to make it faster (like: 
https://gerrit.chromium.org/gerrit/74014). Right now this function is still too 
slow to be switched on by default.
But, agreed, we'll activate this function asap by removing this VERSION check, 
even if it's not made default for RGB->YUV conversion.

This check only exists in the 0.4.x release branches for compatibility 
purposes. 0.5.0 branched from master will expose the function, but there are 
still a few things to be done before we release that. To test this for now a 
tip of tree build will be best.
