Saving images

By default calling the save method on the Image will apply all manipulations to your original image file.

Image::load('example.jpg')
    ->sepia()
    ->save();

To save the image as a copy in a new location pass in the optional $outputPath.

Image::load('example.jpg')
    ->sepia()
    ->save('sepia-example.jpg');

##Saving in a different image format

To save your image as a different image format call the format method and pass in the desired format. Currently the following formats are supported: FORMAT_JPG, FORMAT_PJPG, FORMAT_PNG, FORMAT_GIF, FORMAT_WEBP and FORMAT_TIFF.

Image::load('example.jpg')
    ->format(Manipulations::FORMAT_PNG)
    ->save('example.png');

Alternatively you can change the image format by saving the image with a different file extension than the original image. The Image package will then attempt to convert the image to the correct image format.

Image::load('example.jpg')
    ->save('converted-example.png'); // Will convert the original image to PNG

##Changing JPEG quality

By calling the quality method on the Image you can specify the JPEG quality in percent. This only applies to saving JPEG files.

The $quality argument should be an integer ranging from 0 to 100.

Image::load('example.jpg')
    ->quality(20)
    ->save();
