| [22:23:20] | <symbioquine[m]> | One thing to consider is that it's probably pretty suboptimal to decouple the saving to an image and the printing/page-formatting steps... |
| [23:33:29] | <symbioquine[m]> | Much of the much of the map data is in a vector format so the printing/display size should ideally inform the map dimensions prior to exporting the image. |
| [23:42:10] | <paul121[m]> | <symbioquine[m]> "Much of the much of the map data..." <- That's true, you could definitely use the vectors to optimize this map size. Not sure if you saw this [OL PDF example](https://openlayers.org/en/latest/examples/export-pdf.html), but if you mess with the size & resolution it can differ from the visible map. We talked about was making the export "match" what you see on the map. Its a neat example once you look into it tho! |

| [11:20:23] | <symbioquine[m]> | symbioquine[m]: That's partly why I think Jpeg export is a good low hanging fruit feature to add regardless of any bigger "map printing" feature aspirations. |
| [11:21:55] | <paul121[m]> | Thoughts on image file formats? :D Seems like browsers can support jpeg, png and webp, but are "required" to support jpeg |
| [11:36:27] | <symbioquine[m]> | Probably jpeg and/or png. I think a lot of the map tiles are png so we're probably already "selecting" for browsers that have png support. |
| [11:37:50] | <symbioquine[m]> | For satellite backgrounds jpeg is probably better, and otherwise png is probably better - with regards to file size and resulting quality. |
