How to Compress Images for Email

How to reduce image size for email while keeping text and photos readable.

Email systems often impose attachment limits, and very large camera photos are rarely necessary for a message.

Resize before sending

Choose dimensions appropriate for the recipient. A full-resolution camera photo is often much larger than needed for an email attachment.

Compress a copy

Keep the original and create a smaller JPG or WebP copy for sharing when the recipient and destination support it.

Check the result

Open the compressed copy before attaching it. Make sure text and important details remain readable.

Try Compress Image and Resize Image.
