[Typo3-dev] RFE: Remove profile data from images

[Karsten Dambekalns]

Hi,

I'd like to propose a small enhancement to TYPO3's image handling
"chain of command".

I today had to fight images not showing on MSIE under
Windows. Pfff. It turned out that the problem was caused by MSIE
choking on XML data embedded into a profile block of the JPEG files
(Photoshop 7 on MacOS X does this).

Running all images through
 jpegtran -copy none
fixed the problem.

Would it be a lot of work to add a switch to TYPO3 that makes it
remove all profile information when transforming images for display?
This would not only fix this (rare?) bug, but would make the images (a
bit) smaller by discarding mostly unused data, too.


Just a suggestion :)
