What is PNG Compression?

PNG compression is the process of reducing PNG image file sizes while maintaining the format's key advantages like transparency support and lossless quality. Our PNG compressor uses advanced browser-based algorithms to optimize PNG files by removing unnecessary metadata, optimizing color palettes, and applying efficient compression techniques. Unlike other formats, PNG compression preserves transparency channels and supports both indexed and true-color images.

Real-Time Quality Assessment

Interactive slider comparison and modal preview system lets you evaluate compression quality before downloading, ensuring optimal results.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does PNG compression affect image transparency?

No, our PNG compressor is specifically designed to preserve transparency and alpha channels. Unlike JPG compression, PNG optimization maintains all transparency information while reducing file size through advanced compression algorithms.

How much can I reduce PNG file sizes?

PNG compression results vary based on image content and settings. Simple graphics with few colors can see 50-80% reduction, while complex photographs may achieve 20-40% reduction. Our tool shows exact compression ratios for each image.

Is PNG compression lossless?

Traditional PNG is lossless, but our compressor offers both lossless optimization and controlled lossy compression options. You can choose quality levels from 30-95% to balance file size with visual quality based on your needs.

Can I compress PNG images in bulk?

Yes, our tool supports batch processing of multiple PNG files. Upload multiple images, apply compression settings to all, and download the results as individual files or a single ZIP archive.

What's the difference between PNG and JPG compression?

PNG compression preserves transparency and uses different algorithms optimized for graphics, logos, and images with sharp edges. JPG compression is better for photographs but doesn't support transparency. Our PNG compressor is specifically tuned for PNG format characteristics.

Are there any file size or quantity limits?

No artificial limits are imposed. The tool processes images entirely in your browser, so limitations depend only on your device's memory and processing capabilities. Batch processing handles multiple files efficiently.
