Frequently asked questions
- How do I compress an image to 20 KB?
- Drop your photo in. The target is already set to 20 KB. Download it when it's ready; the list shows the final size. You can drop many photos at once.
- Can a photo really be under 20 KB?
- Yes. At 20 KB the photo is made smaller in pixels (often around 300–400 px wide), which is exactly what form portals with a 20 KB limit expect for photos and signatures.
- What if it can't get under 20 KB?
- It keeps shrinking the image until it fits. In the rare case it can't, the list says so and you get the smallest version it could make.
- Are my photos uploaded?
- No. Every image is processed by your own browser, on your device. Nothing is sent to a server.
