How to use it

Resize and download
Press Resize images and download the JPG. The result shows its exact size.
When 200 KB is enough
200 KB is generous for a photo: a picture of about 800 by 1000 pixels usually fits with little visible loss. Scans of ID cards and certificates also stay readable at this size when they were scanned at a moderate resolution.
If your phone photo is several MB, the tool does the shrinking for you. It picks the highest quality that fits under the limit, so you do not have to guess a setting.
Tips for a 200 KB image
- Many portals also set a minimum size. If a very small file is rejected, raise the limit and try again.
- Enter the dimensions the portal asks for, in pixels, before applying the 200 KB limit.
- Keep your original and save the resized copy under a new name.
- Photos with sharp text, such as ID cards, look best as a JPG at high quality.
Frequently asked questions
How do I reduce an image to 200 KB?
Add the image, keep the 200 KB limit and press Resize images. The tool picks the best JPG quality that fits.
What is the difference between 200 KB and 2 MB?
2 MB is about ten times bigger. 200 KB is only 0.2 MB. Check that the unit on your form is KB and not MB.
Can I use PNG for a 200 KB limit?
PNG files are lossless, so the tool can only make the picture smaller to reach a limit. JPG keeps more detail at the same file size.
Are my documents safe?
Yes. They are processed in your browser and are never uploaded, which matters for ID documents.
