Term - Optimising

Optimising

Where the data of a digital image is changed or optimised without removing pixels. This is necessary when using pictures on the Web that need to be as small as possible. Some programs have an auto optimising feature that will convert the picture to a JPEG and include the necessary colour palette to ensure the picture looks as good as it did before optimisation.
