Google JPEGLI

[grunnvms]

Google has introduced JPEGLI, a new better type of JPEG that seems to be compatible with existing JPEG decoders. It seems to improve the quality of the JPEG images, and at the same time give a 35% better compression. It's also 10 bit, instead of 8 bit.

It's an open source library, so Serif could use it without license problems.

Could it be useful to implement JPEGLI in Affinity Photo etc. ?

Because Jpegli is backwards compatible, it can be used in PDFs, SVGs, and other formats that support JPEG compression. I would love to have the option to use the Jpegli encoder to make my PDF's smaller when exporting in Publisher and Designer.
