Image Quality

Quality only affects JPEG and WebP outputs. Higher numbers retain more detail at the cost of file size.

Raheg in plain language

Raheg picks the right format for you. The converter measures the input — photographic content goes to WebP, screenshots with set type go to PNG, transparency goes to PNG or WebP — and presents one button. After the conversion a small panel reveals what was actually chosen, including the byte saving, so the decision is hidden from view but never hidden from inspection.

If you disagree with the algorithm, the advanced panel exposes every encoder explicitly. We hold ourselves to the standard that any default we ship has to be one we can explain in a single sentence; if it cannot be explained, it should not be the default. Files older than twenty-four hours are removed automatically; the decision log is stored only long enough to render the result panel.

Three decisions, one click

  1. Drop your file into the upload area. Raheg detects whether it is a photograph, a screenshot or a transparent asset.
  2. Press Convert. There is no format dropdown to consult on the first pass — Raheg picks WebP for photos, PNG for transparency, and tells you what it chose afterwards.
  3. Read the result panel. It shows the chosen format, the chosen quality and the byte saving in plain language.
  4. If you disagree with the algorithm, the advanced panel exposes the explicit format menu and quality slider.
  5. Download the file. The decision was hidden from view but never hidden from inspection.

Technical handbook from the Raheg team

The following sections extend the quick steps above with the engineering detail we would give to a colleague. Raheg Smart Converter is built around intelligent, opinionated graphic formatting decisions; every recommendation below is written against real workloads, not generic marketing copy. If anything conflicts with your in-house policy, your policy wins — but if you are starting from scratch, this is the baseline we ship in production.

Format selection matrix

JPG is the default interchange format for continuous-tone photography on the web and in most CMS pipelines. It does not support transparency; semi-transparent PNGs flattened to JPG acquire a flat colour background (usually white). PNG is lossless and should be chosen when you have hard edges, UI screenshots, diagrams or alpha channels. WebP offers both lossy and lossless modes and typically beats JPG on byte size at the same perceived quality; Raheg prefers WebP for outbound web assets when the destination stack supports it. GIF should be reserved for legacy animation or extremely constrained environments — for static graphics, PNG or WebP lossless is almost always superior. BMP and TIFF are archival and print-interchange formats; they produce large files and are inappropriate for browser delivery but excellent for hand-off to a pre-press partner. HEIC is the default capture format on many modern phones; converting HEIC to JPG or WebP is the standard path before uploading to web platforms that do not yet parse HEIC reliably. PDF is a container: raster pages embedded in PDF through Raheg are suitable for proofing and lightweight document assembly, not for replacing a professional pre-press workflow.

Colour profiles and metadata

Our Imagick-based pipeline reads embedded ICC profiles where present and aims to produce outputs that decode predictably in sRGB-centric browsers. Wide-gamut sources (Adobe RGB or ProPhoto) may be perceptually compressed when targeting sRGB — that is expected behaviour, not a bug. EXIF orientation tags are honoured on read. IPTC copyright and caption fields are preserved on formats that support embedded metadata in our build configuration; if you rely on a specific metadata block for legal reasons, spot-check the output in exiftool after first use.

Quality slider semantics

The quality control affects only lossy codecs (JPG, WebP lossy). It maps to encoder-specific quantisation tables — not to a literal “percentage of pixels kept”. A setting of 80 is the Raheg recommended default for web photography; 90 for hero images and portraits where banding is more costly than bytes; 95+ should be rare and usually indicates that the asset should have stayed in PNG or TIFF until final delivery. Lossless targets ignore the slider by design.

Security and retention

Uploaded files are written only to a quarantined temporary directory with regenerated names. Path traversal attempts are rejected at validation. MIME sniffing via finfo is combined with extension checks. Working files and derivatives are deleted automatically within twenty-four hours. We do not train models on your content, sell thumbnails, or fingerprint files for advertising. If your organisation requires a Data Processing Agreement, contact hello@raheg.com with your jurisdiction and volume.

When Raheg conversion is the wrong tool

Do not use the browser converter for medically regulated imaging, forensic evidence chains, or mission-critical print colour proofing without independent validation. Do not batch confidential material from an unmanaged device on a shared network without VPN discipline. For anything requiring CMYK separations, spot channels, or ink-limit profiles, stay in desktop pre-press software until the final rasterisation step.

What product teams ask Raheg

  1. 01

    Which image formats can Raheg convert between?

    Our converter accepts JPG, JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP, BMP, TIFF and HEIC sources, and exports to JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, BMP, PDF, PSD, AI, TIFF and HEIC. PSD, AI and HEIC outputs require Imagick to be compiled with the matching delegates on the server, so check the about page if a particular format does not appear in your dropdown.

  2. 02

    Is there a file size or batch limit?

    Each upload is capped at the size displayed on the upload area, which by default is 5 MB per file with up to five files per batch. The limit is configurable per domain. If your file is larger, please resize it first or contact us at hello@raheg.com for guidance.

  3. 03

    Are converted images stored on the server?

    Originals and converted output files are written to a temporary directory and automatically deleted after twenty-four hours by a sweeper that runs on every request. We do not keep copies, hashes or thumbnails of your files for analytics, advertising or any other purpose.

  4. 04

    Why does WebP look smaller than JPG at the same quality?

    WebP uses a more modern compression algorithm than JPG, so it usually delivers similar perceived quality at twenty to thirty percent smaller file size. That is why Raheg uses WebP as its preferred output for web-facing assets, especially when smart defaults and intelligent format selection matters.

  5. 05

    Can I convert PDF files into images?

    The current public version of the Raheg converter focuses on raster-to-raster and raster-to-vector container conversions (for example JPG to PDF). PDF-to-image splitting is not exposed in the user interface yet, but the underlying Imagick stack supports it. Drop us a note if this is something your team needs.

  6. 06

    Does the quality slider affect lossless formats?

    No. PNG, GIF and BMP are lossless containers, so the quality slider has no effect on them. The slider only changes the JPEG and WebP encoders, which use real lossy compression.

  7. 07

    Can I convert images on a mobile device?

    Yes. The interface is fully responsive and works in any modern mobile browser. HEIC photos taken with iPhones can be uploaded straight to Raheg and converted to JPG or WebP for sharing.

  8. 08

    Does $short add a watermark to converted images?

    No watermark, ever. The output you download is exactly what the converter produced, with no logos, attribution overlays or banner stripes added.

  9. 09

    How is the file integrity protected?

    All traffic between your browser and Raheg is encrypted with HTTPS. The server-side handler validates MIME type and extension, regenerates the file name to prevent path collisions, and limits acceptable formats to a curated whitelist.

  10. 10

    Does Raheg support CMYK or print-ready PDF workflows?

    The public Raheg Smart Converter converter targets sRGB-centric web and office workflows. CMYK separation, ink limiting and certified print PDFs require desktop pre-press software. You can still use Raheg for intermediate raster normalisation before handing off to a print partner.

  11. 11

    Can teams standardise on Raheg presets?

    Yes. Many Raheg users document three internal presets (web hero, thumbnail, archive) and share the quality and format numbers in their design-system wiki. The tool intentionally stays minimal so those presets stay stable across browser updates.

  12. 12

    What happens if Imagick on the server lacks a delegate for my format?

    Some rare encoders depend on optional ImageMagick delegates. If a format is greyed out or fails with a clear error, e-mail hello@raheg.com with your Raheg Smart Converter domain and we will confirm which outputs are enabled on that host.
