All kind of lossless image compression

Post by useratxnview »

Hello, tell me please all possibilities to LOSSLESSLY compress image using NConvert.

So, input data are:
1. I have image in BMP file format, let's it be "testimage.bmp" (8bpp or 24bpp).
2. My operation system is Windows and I need all actions be executed from the command line.
3. I have downloaded NConvert from http://www.xnview.com/en/nconvert/
4. I run "cmd.exe", do "cd" to NConvert directory.

I need to perform all possible types of LOSSLESS image compression, that NConvert do provide. At least I need:
- JPEG-LS;
and I have found another software to compress in (but I would like to know HOW TO compress with NConvert too):
- JPEG2000,
- PNG.

Questions. Please, specify command lines "how to achieve my goal".

Code: Select all

nconvert -out png testimage.bmp
