How Image Compression Works
Our compressor uses advanced algorithms to reduce file size through two main methods:
- Lossless Compression: Reduces file size without losing any image data (PNG, GIF)
- Lossy Compression: Selectively removes image data that's less noticeable to human eyes (JPG, WEBP)
Best Practices for Image Compression
- Choose the right format: JPG for photos, PNG for graphics with transparency
- Balance quality and size: Use medium compression for most web images
- Resize before compressing: Scale images to their display size first
- Test different settings: Find the optimal balance for your specific needs
For most web applications, aim for 60-80% quality to achieve significant size reduction while maintaining good visual quality.
