MozJPEG improves JPEG compression efficiency achieving higher visual quality and smaller file sizes at the same time. It is compatible with the JPEG standard, and the vast majority of the world's deployed JPEG decoders. MozJPEG is compatible with the libjpeg API and ABI. It is intended to be a drop-in replacement for libjpeg. MozJPEG is a strict superset of libjpeg-turbo's functionality. All MozJPEG's improvements can be disabled at run time, and in that case it behaves exactly like libjpeg-turbo. MozJPEG is meant to be used as a library in graphics programs and image processing tools. We include a demo cjpeg command-line tool, but it's not intended for serious use. We encourage authors of graphics programs to use libjpeg's C API and link with MozJPEG library instead. Progressive encoding with "jpegrescan" optimization. It can be applied to any JPEG file (with jpegtran) to losslessly reduce file size.

Features

  • MozJPEG is a patch for libjpeg-turbo
  • This project aims to keep differences with libjpeg-turbo minimal
  • Trellis quantization, when converting other formats to JPEG it maximizes quality/filesize ratio
  • Comes with new quantization table presets, e.g. tuned for high-resolution displays
  • Fully compatible with all web browsers
  • Can be seamlessly integrated into any program that uses the industry-standard libjpeg API

User Reviews

  • Great job! Essentially I have to mention a jpeg-rescan feature that can reduce an already encoded jpeg file in size.
