Why compress your images on PDFDocks?

Most online image compressors work the same way under the hood: you upload your photo to a server, it gets processed there, and then it's sent back to you. During that trip, your image — which could be a personal photo, a scanned document, or work material — travels across the internet and ends up, even if just for a few seconds, in someone else's hands. PDFDocks works differently: compression happens with JavaScript, right inside your own browser, using the device's native canvas to re-encode the image at a lower quality. The file never leaves your computer or phone, there's no upload, no server in between. This also means you're not dependent on your connection speed to upload large files, and the process is practically instant because it happens on your own device.

Is it safe to compress images online with PDFDocks?

+

Yes. Unlike most similar tools, your image is never uploaded to a server: compression happens directly in your browser.

Is there a limit on size or number of images?

+

We haven't set any artificial limits. Since all processing happens in your browser, you can compress as many images as you want, of any size. The only limit is the memory available on your device.

What image formats does this tool support?

+

You can upload JPG, PNG or WEBP images. By default the result is generated in WebP, the format that compresses best, though you can choose JPG if you need maximum compatibility.

Do I need to install any software?

+

No, you don't need to install anything. It works directly from your browser, on both computer and mobile.

How much does the image size shrink?

+

It depends on the level chosen and the original image. With extreme compression you can save over 80% on detailed photos, while low compression is barely noticeable in quality.

Does image quality get lost when compressing?

+

With the recommended level, quality loss is practically unnoticeable to the naked eye. More aggressive levels prioritize size savings over visual fidelity.
