Formats and settings

  • The 1 MB limit is prefilled. Sparkpond runs a bounded series of real encodes on this device and reports whether the target was reached.
02

A concrete example

A 1.8 MB photo can be tested at several safe quality levels to find the best candidate at or below 1 MB.

03

Know before you start

  • 1 MB is a target ceiling, not a promise of an exact byte count.
  • Complex images may require dimension reduction, and some targets cannot be reached safely.

Frequently asked questions

Will the result be exactly 1 MB?

No. The value is a target ceiling. The best safe encode may be smaller or may remain above it.

Are my files uploaded?

No. Decoding, searching and encoding run in a Worker in this browser.

Can the dimensions change?

Yes, only when dimension reduction is allowed and needed to approach the target.
