Saving Graphic Files JPEG With Different Quality by Delphi

| Tuesday 15 November 2011


Example of storing graphics into JPEG files which is different from the original picture quality by using a TImage.

Declaration procedure:
SaveJPGWQ procedure (img: TImage; q: TJPEGQualityRange; FDest: TFileName);
var
   iJPG: TJPEGImage;
   iBMP: TBitmap;
begin
   iJPG: = TJPEGImage.Create;
   try
     if img.Picture.Graphic <> nil then
     begin
       if img.Picture.Graphic is TBitmap then iJPG.Assign (img.Picture.Graphic)
       else
       begin
         iBMP: = TBitmap.Create;
         try
           iBMP.Assign (img.Picture.Graphic);
           iJPG.Assign (iBMP);
         finally
           iBMP.Free;
         end;
       end;
       with iJPG do
       begin
         CompressionQuality: = q;
         Compress;
         SaveToFile (FDest);
       end;
     end;
   finally
     iJPG.Free;
   end;
end;

To set the image quality, use the parameter q. Its scope is [1 .. 100] with the assumption that the greater value is given then the image quality of the original will remain intact and vice versa.

*) Add the clause uses the JPEG unit.

Example of implementation:
procedure TForm1.Button1Click (Sender: TObject);
begin
   SaveJPGWQ (image1, 80, 'C: \ JPG1.JPG');
end;

Example implementations # 2 (using TTrackBar and TSaveDialog):
procedure TForm1.Button2Click (Sender: TObject);
begin
   if Image1.Picture.Graphic <> nil then
   begin
     if SaveDialog1.Execute then
     begin
       SaveJPGWQ (image1, TrackBar1.Position, SaveDialog1.FileName);
     end;
   end;
end;
