How image compression tools reduce file size
Choose the page that matches your file, set its compression or cleanup options, and download the result in your browser. The child pages cover image files, animated GIFs, and SVG markup. Each tool processes the file locally in the browser, with no upload, and lets you review the result before saving it.
