How Image Compression Works
Image compression reduces file size by removing redundant data from the image. Lossy compression (like JPEG) discards some visual information that the human eye is less sensitive to, achieving significant file size reduction while maintaining perceived quality. Lossless compression (like PNG) rearranges and encodes data more efficiently without any loss. Modern formats like WebP and AVIF combine both approaches, delivering superior compression ratios with excellent visual quality. The quality slider controls the balance between file size and image fidelity -- lower values produce smaller files with more visible artifacts, while higher values preserve more detail.
Tips for Best Results
- Use quality 75-85 for photographs -- this provides the best balance between size and visual quality.
- For images with text or sharp edges, use PNG or WebP lossless to avoid compression artifacts.
- Convert to WebP format for up to 30% smaller files compared to JPEG at the same quality level.
- Always preview the compressed image before downloading to ensure acceptable quality.
- For web use, aim for images under 200KB -- this helps pages load faster and improves SEO.
