Choose your settings, inspect the preview and keep the original.
Check composition, color and compression rules in the source. The tool does not certify the photo; the authority decides acceptance.

What to check

Actual size and quality depend on your image. Settings do not certify acceptance by another service.
How to use this guidance
- 01
Choose your original
Select an image and keep a copy. Animated GIF input produces a still image.
- 02
Set a maximum and dimensions
Enter the destination’s requirements. Custom dimensions remain fixed even when a very small cap cannot be reached.
- 03
Inspect the output
Check actual bytes, pixels and readability. A preset does not guarantee third-party acceptance.
Use a suitable original photograph and check the crop preview. A square export can still have incorrect head framing or lighting.
A size cap is only one check. If the source is already blurry, recompression cannot restore missing detail.
Common questions
Does a target guarantee an exact file size?
No. The target is a requested maximum. Inspect the actual bytes, dimensions and visual quality; a very small target can remain unmet.
Will compression keep every detail?
JPEG and WebP can lose detail. PNG uses lossless encoding, but resizing changes pixels. Keep your original and compare the preview.
Does this tool set print DPI metadata?
DPI converts centimeters or inches to pixels. This browser export does not write your chosen print-DPI tag. Check pixel dimensions and use print software for physical print settings.
