LibJpeg.Net is at final stage of development

Updated on December 19, 2025

Today I want to share some good news with all of you: LibJpeg.Net is almost ready for release!

We started this free (as in speech and in beer) open-source project several months ago because we needed a managed JPEG library for our Docotic.Pdf project. Docotic.Pdf is a .NET library for reading and writing PDF files, so the ability to handle images is essential.

We tried to find a JPEG library with quality comparable to libjpeg, but without success. Sure, there are some .NET wrappers for libjpeg, but no pure managed implementations. So, we decided to implement our own 🙂

And now, this work is almost done! We'll announce on this blog when LibJpeg.Net will be available for download (along with its source code). You can send us a message, and we'll notify you by e-mail.
