png to jpg
Hi,
with a view to further improving this fantastic program, would it be possible to modify the "Compress images losslessly" menu so that, before compressing images, it converts .png files to .jpg files, since compressing .jpg files is much more effective and, above all, much faster?
Hi and thank you.

Shameless plug: my Sigil PNGOptimizer plugin also supports lossy png optimization with pnquant.
(If you don't want to install Sigil and the plugin you can also unzip your epub and use the pnquant binary for your OS.)
