Frequently Asked Questions
Is compressing an image with PDFPilot really free?
Yes. Compress Image is completely free to use, with no sign-up or account required.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. Compression happens entirely in your browser. Your image is never uploaded to PDFPilot's servers.
Why does my PNG get converted to JPG?
PNG is a lossless format — browsers can't re-encode it at a lower quality to shrink it. To meaningfully reduce a PNG's file size, this tool converts it to JPG, which supports adjustable quality.
How much smaller will my file be?
It depends entirely on the image and the quality you choose — PDFPilot shows the exact size reduction after compressing so you can decide whether to try a different quality level.
