Resize Image to 700 KB
700 KB suits a full page scanned in colour at about 200 DPI — every line readable, stamps and signatures clear — for portals that allow up to a megabyte or less. Everything runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded. Need different dimensions instead? Resize or convert.
Why compress to 700 KB?
Many sites cap images at 700 KB — typically for blog images, large web graphics and attachments. That leaves room for roughly a 2080×1560 JPG photo.
About 2080×1560 px fits
At medium quality a detailed JPG photo of roughly 2080×1560 pixels lands under 700 KB; at high quality about 1450×1090.
Typical use
700 KB limits are common for blog images, large web graphics and attachments.
5.1× smaller than a phone photo
A 12 MP phone photo is around 3–4 MB, so it must shrink about 5.1×. The tool lowers quality first and resizes only if needed.
Quality to expect
At 700 KB, quality is very good. There is room for a sharp, full-screen photo.
Scans and documents
A scanned A4 page of about 2510×3550 pixels usually fits, because text pages compress far better than photos.
Exact limit, checked
700 KB is measured as 716,800 bytes (1 KB = 1,024 bytes), the way most upload forms count it, so the file is never just over.

| Photo at medium quality | about 2080×1560 px |
| Photo at low quality | about 2820×2110 px |
| Scanned A4 document | about 2510×3550 px |
| Reduction from a 12 MP phone photo | about 5.1× |
| Output format | JPG (best for photos), WebP or PNG |
| Typical use | Blog images, large web graphics and attachments |

Full pages at 200 DPI
200 DPI is the sweet spot for documents: an A4 page is then about 1650×2340 pixels. Text is crisp, and a colour scan compresses to around 500–800 KB.
Phone scanning. Hold the phone directly above the page in good light. Most phone cameras capture more than 200 DPI worth of detail, so crop and resize down rather than up.
Black-and-white pages can go much smaller — try 400 KB — since there is no colour to keep.
Also: A4 size, JPEG under 700 KB, 750 KB.

Frequently asked questions
What DPI should I scan documents at?
200 DPI is enough for readable text. 300 DPI is only needed if the document will be printed again.
How many pixels fit in 700 KB?
For a detailed JPG photo, about 2080×1560 at medium quality or 2820×2110 at low quality. Simple graphics and scans can be much larger.
What quality will a 700 KB photo have?
Very good. There is room for a sharp, full-screen photo. The tool keeps the dimensions where it can and lowers compression quality first, so faces and text stay readable.
Is 700 KB the same as 700,000 bytes?
Not quite. Most forms count 1 KB as 1,024 bytes, so 700 KB is 716,800 bytes. The tool uses the same count, so a file it marks as under 700 KB is accepted.
Should I use JPG or WebP for 700 KB?
JPG is accepted everywhere and is the safe choice for forms. WebP holds about 30% more detail at the same size, ideal for websites that support it.
Why is my file still over 700 KB?
Very large or detailed images may not reach 700 KB by quality alone. Resize it first (for example to 2080 pixels wide) with the resizer, then compress again.
Are my images uploaded anywhere?
No. They are read and compressed by your own browser and never leave your device. You can disconnect from the internet once the page has loaded and it will still work.
