Compress Picture
#4
Many thanks Rich & Blighty.

I read through the suggested manual sections, & had a bit of a play around with the options mentioned. 
The ultimate aim of this search is that I am trying to make a montage of probably 3 or 4 portraits in a single picture file. Ideally I would like the final result to have each individual picture come out in the same quality as the originals that were used to make the montage. My first attempts always come out at a lower quality which I checked by just zooming in & comparing pics. 

Basically what I am doing is opening a Word doc, drag/drop the pics to sit alongside each other, then save as a PDF file. Open PDF file in GIMP, & also opening the files with a Resolution of 450 pixels/in (from trial & error).
From their it is Autocrop to remove the borders then Export.......

The Word to PDF conversion is what seemed easiest as I was struggling to do the same with GIMP, but if it is relatively simple then I could try it the GIMP way!

All advice greatfully appreciated!   Big Grin
