Compress image to 200 KB
Set a 200,000-byte ceiling for a photo attachment. Compare actual file size and dimensions after the browser finds an output that fits.

How to reduce an image to a 200 KB maximum
- Choose the image you need to attach.
- Leave the limit at 200 KB, choose JPG or WebP, and keep automatic downsizing on only if the destination allows it.
- Compress and inspect fine text or facial detail. Download when the result confirms that it meets the limit.
Example
A high-resolution attachment → a file at or below 200,000 bytes. The tool reports any dimension reduction; it does not promise a fixed compression percentage.
When to use this tool
Use this for upload fields with a 200 KB cap when you need more detail than a tiny thumbnail. For documents containing small text, inspect legibility carefully and use a larger permitted budget when possible.
Supported formats & limits
One static image at a time, up to 20 MiB and 24 megapixels. Lower device limits are shown in the workspace. JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF and HEIC/HEIF inputs are supported where the local decoder is available. Output is JPG or WebP. KB means 1,000 bytes. EXIF/GPS metadata is removed; animated images are unsupported.
Something isn’t working ↗Good to know
Can this make every image smaller than 200 KB?
It tries a bounded quality search and optional proportional downsizing. If the target is not reached under those constraints, it reports the smallest attempted size and does not enable a misleading download.
Is JPG or WebP smaller?
The result depends on the image and browser encoder. You can try either supported output and compare the actual byte count, as long as the destination accepts that format.
What happens to transparent areas?
JPG replaces transparency with the background color you choose. WebP can preserve transparency. Preview the downloaded format before using it.
Does compression crop the image?
No. Optional downsizing keeps the whole image and its proportions, subject to pixel rounding. Cropping is a separate tool.
