Using images:

bmp_big.bmp     519 KB

png_big.png     281 KB

png_small.png     33 KB

tif_small.tif     3 KB

png_small2.png     3 KB

When executing the above code with the images using the LFSO80, I get significant image compression for the color images in LF, with color images being ~55 KB after import. (54KB, 55KB, 56KB, 3KB, 2KB)

When executing using the LFSO83, there is little image compression, and in fact the small color PNG increases in size 10x during import. (284KB, 285KB, 350KB, 3KB, 2KB)

Black and white images appear stay compressed on import.

Is this a known issue using the 8.3.2 SDK? Is there a newer version of the 8.3.x SDK that fixes the compression to more closely follow the 8.0 SDK?
