PNG Compression, max compress (=quality 9): convert file_example_TIFF_10MB.tiff -quality 9 test.png JPG Encoding, 99% quality (=quality 99): convert file_example_TIFF_10MB.tiff -quality 99 test.jpg Final file size comparison: 9.7M Sep 5 13:21 file_example_TIFF_10MB.tiff 1.7M Sep 5 13:22 test.jpg 2.5M Sep 5 13:22 test.png PNG is significantly larger, and difference in quality between them is negligible
