Balance a medium-size upload with readable detail
A 300KB limit often leaves more room for detail than a thumbnail budget while still requiring a large camera image to be reduced. This page uses a 300,000-byte maximum. The compressor searches for the highest fitting quality within the tested range and your quality ceiling.
Get a better result
If the image includes a chart, inspect small labels rather than only judging the large preview. JPG can create halos around text; WebP may be worth comparing when accepted. Do not choose a different format if the receiving form specifically requires JPEG.
A quick workflow
- Select your image and review its original byte count.
- Choose dimensions suitable for viewing and leave the target at 300KB.
- Process, check target status and compare small details before saving.
When this tool helps
Make a compact illustration for a report, a modest product picture or an application photo whose documented limit is 300KB. Re-export from the original whenever you try another setting.
