Compress PNG

About This PNG Compression Tool

This PNG Compression Tool is a powerful web-based utility designed to reduce the file size of your PNG images without significantly compromising visual quality. Whether you're a web developer optimizing site assets, a graphic designer preparing images for digital use, or simply someone looking to save storage space, this tool provides an efficient solution.

How to Use This Tool

1. Upload Your PNG Image - Click the "Browse Files" button or simply drag and drop your PNG file directly into the upload area. The tool accepts PNG files up to 100MB in size.
2. Adjust Compression Quality - Use the quality slider to set your preferred compression level. Moving the slider to the left (lower percentage) will result in a smaller file size but may reduce image clarity. Moving it to the right (higher percentage) preserves more detail but results in a larger file.
3. Compress Your Image - Click the "Compress Image" button to begin the optimization process. You'll see a progress bar indicating the compression status. The tool uses advanced algorithms to reduce file size while maintaining visual integrity.
4. Preview and Compare - After compression, view your optimized image in the preview section. The tool displays both the original and compressed file sizes, along with the percentage reduction achieved.
5. Download Your Compressed Image - Once satisfied with the results, click the "Download Compressed Image" button to save the optimized PNG to your device. The downloaded file will have "compressed-" added to the original filename.

Technical Details

The compression algorithm works by analyzing the image data and applying various optimization techniques including color palette reduction, metadata stripping, and efficient encoding. Higher compression levels use more aggressive optimization that may slightly reduce image quality, while lower compression focuses on removing unnecessary data without visible impact.
