imagecache actions - smaller dpi resolution

john.pannell - November 2, 2009 - 10:22

The problem I am having is that my users upload camera photos that are 300dpi resolution. I use an action to resize them to (say) 500px wide by 300px high, but the file size is about 500k+. I need this to be about 50k so that the images load quickly.

In Photoshop I do this by changing the dpi from 300 to 72 when cropping. Then SaveForWeb.

Can this be done in Drupal? Are there any imagecache actions that can do the same or a workaround without coding?

Thanks,

John

I'm not sure I understand the question-- if what you need is not available here:

http://drupal.org/project/modules?filters=drupal_core:87&text=imagecache

Then you'll need coding. From a quick look, it seems as if you could use http://drupal.org/project/im_raw to do it.
