Frequently Asked Questions
Does compression always reduce quality?
Not visibly. Modern codecs like MozJPEG and libwebp can reduce file size by 60-80% with changes invisible to the human eye.
What quality setting should I use?
For web images, 75-85% is ideal. For print, use 90-95%. Below 70% you may notice artifacts in detailed areas.
Is my data safe during compression?
Absolutely. ImageMint processes everything in your browser using WebAssembly. Your images are never uploaded to any server.
