❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about file compression
Yes! 100% free forever with unlimited usage. No hidden fees, no subscriptions, no watermarks. Compress as many files as you want, whenever you want.
It depends on the file type and content. Images typically compress 60–90%, PDFs 20–50%. Documents like DOCX/XLSX are already internally compressed so savings are minimal. Videos and audio require specific tools (we provide guidance).
No. All files are processed in real-time and automatically deleted immediately after compression. We never store, view, analyse, or share your files. Your data stays completely private.
Lower quality (10–50%) = maximum compression but visible quality loss. Medium (60–80%) = balanced compression with minimal visible loss. High (85–100%) = small size reduction, best quality. We recommend 85% for most uses — compression is nearly invisible to the human eye.
Yes! Set quality to 100% for lossless PNG compression — this applies PNG-specific optimisation (removing metadata, optimising colour palette) without any visible quality loss. For further reduction, 90–95% quality is nearly indistinguishable from the original.
Images: 50MB max. PDFs/Documents: 100MB max. Videos: 500MB max. These limits ensure fast processing for all users. For larger files, consider splitting them first.
Video and audio compression typically requires dedicated tools like ffmpeg or HandBrake. We provide file analysis and detailed recommendations with the best settings for your specific files, so you can compress them using free desktop tools.
Lossless compression (100% quality) reduces file size without any data loss — the decompressed file is identical to the original. Lossy compression (below 100%) achieves greater size reductions by permanently removing some data, but at high quality settings (85%+) the difference is virtually undetectable.
At 85% quality (our recommended setting), compression artifacts are virtually invisible. You'd need to view at 400% zoom and compare side-by-side to spot any difference. For professional printing, use 95%+. For web use, 75–85% is perfect.
Most email providers limit attachments to 10–25MB. Upload your file, use AUTO mode, and compress. For images, 85% quality typically reduces a 5MB photo to under 1MB. For PDFs, AUTO mode will optimise fonts, images, and remove unnecessary metadata.
