File size
The target is a maximum, not an exact size. If it cannot be met at the selected dimensions, we tell you; we never reduce pixels silently.
1 KB = 1000 bytes · 1 MB = 1000000 bytes
Advanced options
This is a byte reduction, separate from width and height scaling.
Original reused only if no private metadata needs removal.
JPEG has no transparency. Choose a background before converting PNG or WebP; the background preview below shows it.
