FAQ for 20 KB Compression
Everything you need to know about a 20 KB target.
Yes, 20 KB works well for email when you need a lightweight file with clear detail. If the image is complex, reduce dimensions slightly or try WebP to stay within the limit. Testing the result on your target page gives the best signal.
Color accuracy is generally stable, yet gradients may lose smoothness at small sizes. Try a slight quality change to protect color detail. Keep the aspect ratio locked to avoid stretched shapes.
Auto resize is not forced. You decide the dimensions, and small scale adjustments can make the 20 KB limit easier to reach. For very busy images, reduce width slightly and try again. Saving a second version makes comparison easy.
WebP usually reaches 20 KB with fewer artifacts, while JPG is safest for wide compatibility. Compare both and keep the version that looks cleaner for message previews. Small edits can avoid harsh compression artifacts.
Yes, you can switch to MB in the unit selector if you need a larger target. For this page, keep KB to hit 20 KB, then change units when needed. If the file looks soft, try WebP and lower quality one step.
When the source is under 20 KB, the tool outputs it as is. You keep the same quality and avoid unnecessary recompression. Most users find one or two passes enough. For very busy images, reduce width slightly and try again.
Exports typically drop extra metadata to save space. The pixels stay the same, but camera data and EXIF tags are removed, which also helps privacy and keeps the file lean. Saving a second version makes comparison easy.
