This should really be the default option for all these image optimisiation things - stripping ICC profiles is not a lossless operation (especially in a world no colour managed web browsers as we now live in).
@terryupton You can generally solve this at your end for now by using your own option string for the optimisations e.g. jpegoptim
use something like:
'optionString' => '--strip-com --strip-exif --strip-iptc --all-progressive',
I'll put this on my todo-list for the next version of Imager I'm working on, and see what I can come up with. At the moment I'm using the built-in strip
method in Imagine, which doesn't allow for any fine-grained removal - it's all or nothing - so I'll have to roll my own functionality then.
@terryupton Just to be clear, you're only transforming the image using width/height and similar, or are you also doing effects: { grayscale: true }
on them?
@bossanova808 That's a nice hack. :)
@aelvan no effects just size transforms. Interestingly is does add _greyscale- to the end of the transformed filename, so it seems like something else might be occurring behind the scenes or as a bug?
(I am using effects....can't deal with transforms without some image sharpening happening!)
Is there any way Imager could be configured to strip the meta data but only keep the ICC Color Profiles? I believe this would still result in slightly smaller sizes, one of the benefits of removing the META data, but still ensuring the image is correct.
I have a series of black and white images that are getting darkened when I set 'removeMetadata' => true, but setting it to false is adding a good 30KB to the larger images.
Here are some comparisons.
Original Image
'removeMetadata' => false 313KB 1164 × 1601px Colour space: Grey Colour Profile: Generic Gray Gamma 2.2 Profile
'removeMetadata' => true 289KB 1164 × 1601px Colour space: Grey
I am not entirely sure where the Colour space: grey is getting set? is this something Imager/iMagick is doing?
