Code: Select all

convert zjb_origin.jpeg -quality 90% xx.webp
it is the origin jpeg, http://smellycat.oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyun ... rigin.jpeg

JPEG is a lossy format. This means the compression code changes the pixel values when the file is written. Lower quality number gives better compression but causes more change.

The data is lost. You can't get it back by reading the JPEG and saving the image to another format.
