Frequently Asked Questions

Resize to 800×600px first, then compress at quality 70–75. This typically results in files of 50–100KB for most photos.

Keep dimensions below 1200px wide and compress to quality 80. Most email-ready photos should be 200–500KB.

Always resize first to remove unnecessary pixels, then compress. Compressing a large image gives worse results than compressing a correctly-sized image.

About This Tool

Many real-world situations demand an image under a specific file size threshold — government portals require passport photos under 100KB, email providers have attachment limits around 10–25MB, social platforms silently recompress oversized uploads, and employment sites often cap CVs and portfolios at 2MB. Unlike generic compressors, PixlTools targets the root causes of large file size: unnecessarily high resolution and insufficient compression. The correct workflow is always to resize to the display dimensions first (removing surplus pixels that add no visual value), then compress to the quality level appropriate for the use case — typically 75–80 for web, 85–90 for print preview. Our file size reducer applies both steps in the correct order, server-side, for consistent and reproducible results.
