Tool details and privacy
Reduce an image to under a size you enter in kilobytes, such as 100 or 200 KB, as application forms and portals require. The tool tells you plainly whether the limit was reached.
Quality is lowered first, and dimensions shrink only if that is not enough. If the limit cannot be reached at an acceptable quality, the tool says so instead of handing you a ruined picture.
Options
- A target from 1 to 10240 KB, with quick buttons for 50, 100, 200 and 500 KB and 1 MB.
- Optional maximum width and height up to 8000 pixels; the image is never enlarged.
Limits
- One image as JPG, PNG or WebP, up to 12 MB and 24 million pixels.
- The result is always a JPG, and transparent areas become white.
- Quality never goes below 40%, and dimensions never shrink below a quarter of the size.
Privacy
The image is processed in your browser and never uploaded.
Questions
How do I get an image under 200 KB?
Add the image and leave the limit at 200; the tool lowers quality, then dimensions if needed, until the file fits, and shows the final size before you download.
What if the image does not reach the limit?
Enter a smaller maximum width, such as 800 pixels, or raise the limit a little. Large, detailed photos cannot go down to very small sizes without being ruined.
Do the image dimensions change?
Not if lowering quality is enough. Otherwise the dimensions shrink step by step, and the new size is shown in the result.
What format is the result?
Always JPG, the format most forms accept.
