Hi,
I want to change the JPEG compression ration in savefig.
There seem to be an undocumented extra keyword arguments as pointed at the matplotlib-devel list, but they don't have an effect:
*quality*: The image quality, on a scale from 1 (worst) to
95 (best). The default is 75. Values above 95 should
be avoided; 100 completely disables the JPEG
quantization stage.
*optimize*: If present, indicates that the encoder should
make an extra pass over the image in order to select
optimal encoder settings.
*progressive*: If present, indicates that this image
should be stored as a progressive JPEG file.
I am using the GTKAgg backend. I also tried the Agg backend but JPG was not supported with this.
I would like to have a proper documentation at http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/pyplot_api.html#matplotlib.pyplot.savefig and an implementation that works.
Cheers
Frank
