  3. 3Press “Compress to 200 KB”. The page tries different quality levels for you and keeps the best one that fits.
  4. 4Download the result and check the size shown in the list.

Tips and limits

  • For a document scan, photograph it flat and straight on a dark surface. Cropping the table away saves more bytes than any compression.
  • If the text in the result looks fuzzy, raise the target to 500 KB if the form allows it.
  • Several files at once are fine: you get one ZIP with every compressed copy.

Compress Image to 200KB

Two hundred kilobytes is a comfortable limit for photos and document scans: enough room to keep text readable on an ID card or certificate, yet small enough for most application portals. This page opens the compressor with a 200 KB target applied, so you only add the file and press the button.

Scanned documents behave differently from portraits. Fine printed text needs sharp edges, so for those pictures the tool favours keeping the dimensions and lowering quality only slightly. If you are working with several pages, turn them into one file first with JPG to PDF. For tighter limits see 100 KB.

Frequently asked questions

How do I compress an image to 200 KB?

Add the image, leave the target at 200 KB and press compress. The tool picks the highest quality that keeps the file at or under 200 KB.

Is 200 KB enough for a scanned ID card?

Usually yes for a phone photo of one side, as long as the text stays sharp. If it gets blurry, try a larger target or a straighter, cropped photo.

How do I reduce the size of an image?

Add your image, lower the quality slider or type a target size, and press the button. A quality of 70–80% usually looks the same but is far smaller.

How do I compress an image to a specific size like 100 KB?

Switch to “To a target size”, type 100 and choose KB. The tool finds the best quality that keeps the file at or under that size.

Are my photos uploaded to a server?

No. Compression runs entirely in your browser, so your photos never leave your device.
