Setting Up Folder Image Compression

This article explains how to manage image compression at the folder level. Applying compression at the folder level allows you to use different compression settings for different images. Subfolders inherit the compression settings of parents, and parent settings supersede those of subfolders. You can also set up compression at the website level. For details, see Setting Up Website Image Compression.

To set up image compression for a folder:

  1. From NetSuite, go to Documents > Files > File Cabinet.

  2. Go to the folder you want to modify and click Edit.

  3. Go to the Hosted Images Compression subtab.

  4. Check the Compress Website Images box to turn on compression for all images in the folder that meet the compression criteria.

  5. Select the compression level from the Compressed Image Quality field.

  6. (Optional) Check the Strip Metadata box to remove metadata, such as camera details or the date and time a photo was taken.

  7. (Optional) Check the Chroma Subsampling box to reduce color information in favor of luminance data, which is easier for the human eye to detect. This yields a smaller file size, but a similar visual appearance.

  8. Click Save.
