I have a manga page that has a resolution of 1360x1920. I want it to reduce to 496x700. This is a part of the image without resolution reduced. This is after lowering the resolution to 496x700. This is the Photoshop version after the lowering resolution In short, what photoshop does under the hood to get the result I have shown

I found the solutionI just had to changeimg = Image.open("788.png")toimg = Image.open("788.png").convert("RGB")

Python Pillow resized image (manga) page details are bad compared to the Photoshop

In short, what photoshop does under the hood to get the result I have shown here? When resizing with photoshop you can select resample method to use. Which is NEAREST by default. I used the same method with Pillow library but still, the result didn’t change.

Sample Code

from PIL import Image, ImageFilter

img = Image.open("788.png")
img = img.resize((496, 700), Image.NEAREST)
img.save("low.png")

Answer

I found the solution I just had to change

img = Image.open("788.png")

img = Image.open("788.png").convert("RGB")
