Common questions
Why compress to 20 KB?+
A 20 KB cap is one of the most common limits on exam and government application forms, especially for scanned signatures and passport photos. This gets you under it in one click.
Will a signature still be readable at 20 KB?+
Yes. Signatures and line art compress very well, so 20 KB is usually plenty. For a busy colour photo we also gently reduce the dimensions so it still fits while staying usable.
Is my image uploaded anywhere?+
No. This runs entirely in your browser using your device's own processor. Your image never leaves your computer or phone. Ideal for ID photos and signatures you'd rather not upload.
What if it can't reach 20 KB?+
For large or detailed images we reduce the dimensions too. If it still can't fit while staying usable, we give you the smallest version and tell you, never a broken file.
Which formats work?+
JPG, PNG and WebP. The result is a JPG (or WebP) since those compress to a precise size.
Is there a limit or watermark?+
No watermark, no signup, free, and since it's all in your browser, no upload size limits either.
