Reference
Just a quick refresher on different features.
Resampling
Always use Lanczos 3 (non-separable)
for the best quality. Processing speed is irrelevant.
- Nearest Neighbor — Simple resampling which has the fastest processing time. Use for hard-edge images.
- Bilinear — Algorithmic resampling for use when shrinking images.
- Bicubic — Algorithmic resampling for use when enlarging images. Resampling is smoother than
bilinear
but has a slower processing time. - Lanczos 3 (separable) — Complex algorithmic resampling which gives the best results but with the longest processing time.
- Lanczos 3 (non-separable) — The best results, but slightly slower than
separable
.
