| If you need… | Choose | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Small photo files | JPG | Great compression for complex images like photography and gradients. |
| Transparency or crisp UI | PNG | Supports alpha transparency and sharp edges for logos and screenshots. |
| Modern web performance | WebP | Often smaller than JPG/PNG with strong visual quality on supported browsers. |
Quality + Size Checklist
A simple process to get the smallest acceptable output.
1
Pick a baseline
Start with a medium quality value and export 1–2 representative images (faces, text, gradients, and product textures).
2
Compare visually
Zoom in on edges and fine detail. If you see banding or blockiness, increase quality in small steps.
3
Lock the preset
Once it looks right, apply the same settings to the full batch for consistent output across the project.
Resize Guidance
Resize first for performance, then tune quality.
For web pages
Export only as large as the largest display size. Oversized images waste bandwidth and slow down load time.
For social platforms
Match the platform’s recommended dimensions so you avoid extra recompression and unexpected crops.
For print
Use the required pixel dimensions for the final print size. Don’t rely on upscaling to “add” real detail.

Quick fixes for common “why does this look different?” moments.
Output looks softer
Try a slightly higher quality value, or switch formats. For text-heavy images, PNG can preserve crisp edges.
File size is still large
Check dimensions first. If you export 2× bigger than you need, compression can’t fully compensate.
Transparency disappeared
JPG does not support transparency. Use PNG or WebP when you need a transparent background.
