Processing limits

  • Accepted formats: jpeg, png, webp
  • Maximum file size: 25 MB
  • Maximum image size: 40,000,000 pixels
  • Maximum files: 20

  • Quality analysis sample: up to 2,000,000 pixels

Canvas output may remove metadata such as EXIF orientation and camera information.

What does this tool solve?

Compare JPEG/PNG compression candidates for multiple JPG, PNG, or WebP images, using file size and RGB pixel-error measures. Each image is analyzed independently; a positive size change means the output is larger than the original. For smaller pixel dimensions, use Image Resizer. For WebP output, use Image Format Converter.

How does it work?

The browser creates JPEG candidates at qualities 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, and 100, or PNG palette candidates at 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, and 256 colors plus a lossless baseline.

Each image gets its own candidate table, chart, preview, download, and continuation actions. Results stay in browser memory.

What are the edge cases and limits?

  • JPG, PNG, and WebP inputs are supported; compression candidates are JPEG and PNG only. Use Image Format Converter for WebP output.
  • The default limits are 25 MB per file, 40 megapixels per image, 20 files, and 100 MB per batch.
  • RMSE and maximum error are technical RGB metrics, not guarantees of subjective visual quality. Large images use an analysis image of up to 2 megapixels.
  • Transparent pixels use a white background in JPEG output. Canvas output may remove EXIF metadata such as camera information and orientation.
