Guide for Compress JPG
Introduction
Shrink JPG files for faster sharing while keeping them clear for screens and print. This guide focuses on getting a lighter file without visible artifacts.
When to use JPG compression
- Email attachments and messengers with size limits
- Product photos for marketplaces or landing pages
- Photo-heavy PDFs you plan to send after converting
- Archiving albums without losing important details
How to use
- Prepare photos: remove duplicates and screenshots you do not need.
- Upload JPG files (up to 500 MB each) via button or drag-and-drop.
- The tool automatically balances size and quality; wait for processing to finish.
- Download the optimized JPGs. If you need an even smaller file, re-run the result.
Tips and recommendations
- Start from the original photo (not an already compressed copy) to avoid double artifacts.
- Keep resolution as-is if text is present; compressing is usually enough for readability.
- For transparency or logos, consider PNG compression instead: Compress PNG.
Example: prepare product photos for a listing
- Upload a set of 10 photos (4–6 MB each).
- After compression, each image is typically a few hundred KB while still sharp on desktop and mobile.
