How to use image compression comparison

01

Start with the original file whenever possible.

02

The image is processed in your browser.

04

Frequently asked questions

Are my images uploaded?

No. These image workflows process the selected file in your browser during the session.

Can I keep the original image?

Yes. The tools create an optimized copy; keep the original as your master file.

Why compare settings?

Different images respond differently to compression. Comparing candidates helps you choose the smallest acceptable output.

Continue your image workflow

After optimizing an image, use the next tool that matches the actual destination instead of processing the same file repeatedly.

Privacy and file quality

Keep the original image as your master copy. Compression is a trade-off between file weight, dimensions, format and visual detail. MAXScanner shows the resulting file size so you can make that choice from the actual output rather than an estimate.
