AEMCaaS - How to handle JPG images in Processing Profiles ?

[VeenaVikraman]

Hi Team

    While working with the processing profiles , we have the option to generate rendition for PNG, JPEG , WEBP, GIF. Since we have images which is of type JPG, I am trying to see how I can bring in renditions for JPG using processing profiles. Any suggestions is appreciated. 

PS:- JPEG won't suit for images with transparent background . 

Thanks

Hi @VeenaVikraman 
It should work with JPEG

@arunpatidar  Issue is with some images which would need to retain the transparency. I was told that the JPEG will not help in keeping the transparency of images. While using Named Transform Servlet , we could use .original to retain that, but with Processing Profile I am bit confused how to get that working. 

Thanks

Hi,

png supports transparency , you should generate rendiotons as png if that is ok for your business requirement. webp is good option too but its support is limited https://caniuse.com/webp

Yeah. I checked with business , they are okay to use PNG if there is no other way around. I guess I will go with PNG then . Thanks @arunpatidar
