What is an online tool to compress PNG files?
An online PNG compressor is used to reduce the size of large, heavy image files. This makes it easier to share them online, improve website loading times, and save storage space without compromising image quality. If you need to change your image dimensions as well, try our image resizer for quick and easy resizing.
How are PNGs compressed?
Our image compressor reduces PNG file sizes by optimizing image data and removing unnecessary information. This process preserves visual quality while decreasing the file size.
Does PNG compress better than JPEG?
It depends on what you’re trying to achieve. JPEGs can be compressed to a smaller size, but tend to lose some of their original quality. PNGs typically have lossless compression, resulting in larger files, but with preserved image quality. If you're dealing with different image formats and need to switch between them, you can try one of our conversion tools, like the WebP to PNG converter.
