JPG compression questions

How do I compress a JPG image?

Add your JPG files with the box above, set the quality, a file size limit or a smaller longest side, compare the result with the original and press Download. Everything runs in your browser, so nothing is uploaded.

How much smaller will my JPG get?

JPG is already compressed, so the gain depends on the file. Lowering the quality, setting a file size limit or capping the longest side usually saves the most. If a file cannot get smaller, the original is kept.

Is the compressed JPG saved as JPG?

Yes. With Format set to Same format, a JPG goes in and a JPG comes out. You can also choose Auto, JPEG, WebP or PNG in Settings.

What happens to transparency in a JPG?

JPG has no see-through areas, so there is nothing to keep.
