How to compress images without losing quality
Practical tips for shrinking JPG, PNG, and WebP files while keeping visuals sharp.
Large images slow down websites, emails, and uploads. Compression reduces file size so files travel faster — without turning photos into blurry blocks.
Choose the right format
Use JPEG for photos, PNG for graphics with sharp edges, and WebP when you need modern efficiency.
Balance quality and size
Start around 75–85% quality for JPEG. Preview the result before downloading.
Resize before you compress
If an image is displayed at 800px wide, uploading a 4000px original wastes bandwidth.
Try the free Image Compressor on PAB Tools — it runs in your browser so files stay private.
