Tool usage guide
The JPEG Quality Adjustment Tool allows you to precisely control the compression level of your images, helping you strike the perfect balance between file size and visual clarity for web or storage optimization.
Background
A high-resolution hero image was causing slow page load times, negatively impacting SEO rankings.
Problem
The original 12MB file was too large for efficient web delivery.
How to use
Upload the image, set the quality to 75, and enable 'Progressive JPEG' for faster rendering.
quality: 75, progressive: trueOutcome
The file size was reduced to under 500KB while maintaining high visual fidelity, significantly improving page load speed.
Background
The photographer needed to send a preview gallery to a client via email, but the files exceeded the attachment limit.
Problem
Individual images were too large to send as a single batch.
How to use
Upload the images and set the quality to 60 to reduce file size without sacrificing too much detail.
A quality setting between 70 and 85 is generally recommended as it provides a significant reduction in file size with minimal visible loss in quality.
No, this tool only adjusts the compression level (quality) of the JPEG data; the pixel dimensions (width and height) remain unchanged.
It creates an image that loads in stages, showing a blurry version first that sharpens as the file downloads, which is ideal for web performance.
By default, metadata is removed to save space. If you need to keep camera settings or location data, ensure you check the 'Keep Metadata' option.
The tool supports individual JPEG files up to 50MB.
quality: 60, keepMetadata: falseOutcome
The images were successfully compressed to a size suitable for email, allowing the client to view the previews without downloading massive files.
