Frequently Asked Questions
3 Q&AQ1:How much can I compress images without losing quality?
You can typically compress JPEG images by 60-80% and PNG images by 40-70% while maintaining excellent visual quality. Our tool provides real-time previews so you can find the perfect balance between file size and quality for your needs.
Q2:What's the difference between lossy and lossless compression?
Lossy compression (JPEG) reduces file size by removing some image data, allowing for smaller files but with some quality loss. Lossless compression (PNG) maintains perfect quality but achieves smaller size reductions. Choose based on your quality requirements.
Q3:Can I compress multiple images at once?
Yes, our batch compression feature allows you to upload and compress multiple images simultaneously. All compressed images are packaged into a convenient ZIP file for easy download.
