Image Compressor is a tool or algorithm designed to reduce the file size of digital images. This reduction is achieved by either removing redundant data (lossless compression) or by discarding less critical data (lossy compression) that is unlikely to be noticed by the human eye. The primary goal of image compression is to optimize images for faster loading times on websites, save storage space, and make them more efficient for sharing via email or social media, while preserving acceptable visual quality.
Different image formats utilize various compression techniques, each suited for specific types of images and use cases. Some formats offer a balance between file size and quality, while others prioritize perfect reproduction or support features like animation and transparency.
PNG stands for Portable Network Graphics (PNG) was developed as an improved, non-patented replacement for the GIF format. It was officially released on October 1, 1996. PNG uses a lossless compression method, meaning no image data is lost during compression, resulting in perfect preservation of image quality.
PNG is widely used for web graphics, logos, icons, and images that require transparency. It supports millions of colors and various levels of transparency (alpha channel), making it ideal for images that need to blend seamlessly with different backgrounds. While excellent for graphics and images with sharp lines and text, PNG files can be considerably larger than JPEGs for photographs due to their lossless nature.
