How much can I compress an image without losing quality?

For JPEG photos, compressing to 70-80% quality typically reduces file size by 50-70% with minimal visible difference. PNG files can often be reduced by 20-40% through lossless optimization. The real-time preview lets you find the sweet spot for each image.

What image formats does the compressor support?

The tool accepts JPEG, PNG, and WebP images as input. You can output compressed files in any of these three formats, allowing you to convert PNG to WebP for better compression while you optimize.

Is there a limit on how many images I can compress?

There is no usage limit. You can compress as many images as you need, and the batch processing feature lets you handle multiple files in one session without uploading each one individually.

Does image compression reduce resolution?

No, compression reduces file size, not pixel dimensions. The output image has the same width and height as the original. If you need to change dimensions, use the Image Resizer tool after compressing.

Why is my PNG file not getting much smaller?

PNG is a lossless format, so compression is limited to removing metadata and optimizing the deflate algorithm. For significantly smaller files, consider converting to WebP or JPEG, which use lossy compression and achieve much higher size reductions for photographic content.

Image Compressor

Image compression reduces file size by removing redundant pixel data and applying efficient encoding algorithms. A quality slider lets you balance file size reduction against visual fidelity, with typical savings of 50 to 80 percent for JPEG photos at 70-80% quality settings.
