FAQ

Questions.

What is Compress Image to Exact KB for?

Many portals reject photos above a size limit (for example 20KB, 50KB, or 100KB). This tool shrinks your image until it fits under the limit you set.

Will quality look bad at 20KB?

Very small limits need more compression. The tool keeps the highest quality that still fits. For passport-style photos, start with a clear, cropped image for better results.

Is my photo uploaded to a server?

No. Compression runs fully in your browser. Your image stays on your device.

What output format do I get?

Output is JPEG , which is what most form portals expect for photos.

What if the image cannot reach my target?

If even heavy compression cannot get under the limit, you will see the smallest size achieved. Try cropping, reducing dimensions, or choosing a slightly higher KB limit if the portal allows it.
