JPG, PNG, or WebP imagesHow to compress an image for an upload limit
- Choose a JPG, PNG or WebP image from your device.
- Select a target size or enter a custom limit. JPG is often smaller for photographs, while PNG is useful for graphics and transparency.
- Select Compress image, then review the actual output size before downloading.
Why the exact KB target matters
Many online application forms reject images above a stated upload limit. A target such as 50 KB means the downloaded file must be below the portal's maximum; the image's appearance and dimensions still need to meet that portal's separate requirements.
Compression is best-effort. A detailed photo may not reach 20 KB while remaining readable. If you are unable to meet the size limit, try resizing the dimensions first and then compress again. Always inspect text, faces and document details before submission.
Image Compressor FAQs
Can I compress a photo to exactly 20 KB?
You can target 20 KB, but the actual result depends on the image. Filefit reports the output size so you can check it against your limit.
What image formats are supported?
The compressor accepts JPG, PNG and WebP. Some formats compress more effectively than others depending on the image content.
Does reducing KB change the image dimensions?
The compressor can reduce dimensions when needed to try to meet a target. If you need exact width and height, use the photo and signature resizer first.
