Frequently Asked Questions

Lower quality settings can reduce file size but may affect visual detail.

Image Tips and Ideas

Tip

Dial in the balance

Move the quality slider until artifacts are acceptable for your use. Small changes can make a big difference in size.
Tip

Keep an original copy

JPG compression is lossy, so hang on to the original if you may need full detail later.
Tip

Pick the best format

JPG works best for photos. For crisp text, logos, or transparency, PNG may be a better fit.

What JPG compression changes

JPG reduces file size by discarding some image data. At higher compression levels, fine detail can soften and blocky artifacts can appear.
