如何使用Java压缩PNG图像

Question

Hi I would like to know if there is any way in Java to reduce the size of an image (use any kind of compression) that was loaded as a BufferedImage and is going to be saved as an PNG.

Maybe some sort of png imagewriteparam? I didnt find anything helpful so im stuck.

heres a sample how the image is loaded and saved

public static BufferedImage load(String imageUrl) {         
    Image image = new ImageIcon(imageUrl).getImage();
    bufferedImage = new BufferedImage(image.getWidth(null),
                                                    image.getHeight(null),
                                                    BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
    Graphics2D g2D = bufferedImage.createGraphics();
    g2D.drawImage(image, 0, 0, null);
    return bufferedImage;
}

public static void storeImageAsPng(BufferedImage image, String imageUrl) throws IOException {
    ImageIO.write(image, "png", new File(imageUrl));
}

Answer 1

If it's going to be saved as PNG , compression will be done at that stage. PNG has a lossless compression algorithm (basically prediction followed by lempel-ziv compression) with few adjustable parameters (types of " filters ") and not much impact in compression amount - in general the default will be optimal.

Answer 2

You may want to try pngtastic . It's a pure java png image optimizer that can shrink may png images down to some degree.

Answer 3

Have a look at the ImageWriterParam class in the same package as the ImageIO class. It mentions compression.

https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/javax/imageio/ImageWriteParam.html

Also look at the example at http://exampledepot.com/egs/javax.imageio/JpegWrite.html and see if it translates well for PNG files.

By calling ImageIO.write you use the default compression quality for pngs. You can choose an explicit compression mode which reduces file size a lot.

String inputPath = "a.png";
String outputPath = "b.png";

BufferedImage image;
IIOMetadata metadata;

try (ImageInputStream in = ImageIO.createImageInputStream(Files.newInputStream(Paths.get(inputPath)))) {
    ImageReader reader = ImageIO.getImageReadersByFormatName("png").next();
    reader.setInput(in, true, false);
    image = reader.read(0);
    metadata = reader.getImageMetadata(0);
    reader.dispose();
}

try (ImageOutputStream out = ImageIO.createImageOutputStream(Files.newOutputStream(Paths.get(outputPath)))) {
    ImageTypeSpecifier type = ImageTypeSpecifier.createFromRenderedImage(image);
    ImageWriter writer = ImageIO.getImageWriters(type, "png").next();

    ImageWriteParam param = writer.getDefaultWriteParam();
    if (param.canWriteCompressed()) {
        param.setCompressionMode(ImageWriteParam.MODE_EXPLICIT);
        param.setCompressionQuality(0.0f);
    }

    writer.setOutput(out);
    writer.write(null, new IIOImage(image, null, metadata), param);
    writer.dispose();
}
