Hi,
I'm working with large pgm images of approx 500MB and I want to convert the image to a JPEG to reduce the size of the image.However to convert the image all of the data in the image has to be read into memory which can cause my computer to grind to a halt and to run out of memory.To avoid this I want to combine 2 JPEG images together.Do I have to first decode the JPEG images(and get memory problems) or is there a IJL function or an api call that'll do this.
