What 200KB looks like

200KB keeps a full phone photo readable at reduced resolution, often around 1,200 to 1,600 pixels on the long side for a typical scene. A photo of a document page at this size usually keeps small print legible.

For most uses on screen, a 200KB photo looks very close to the original. You will only notice the difference if you zoom in a long way or print it large.

Where 200KB limits are used

Some application forms, listing sites and support forms use around 200KB as a limit for photos and scanned document images. It is also a handy size for sending photos on slow connections. Follow the limit stated on the page you are uploading to.

How it fits under 200KB

The tool saves as JPEG and searches between quality 0.95 and 0.5 for the highest setting that keeps the file at or under 200KB. If needed, it then reduces the width and height in 10 percent steps. When it says done, the image fits the target.

If it cannot reach 200KB, it tells you and gives you the smallest result. At this size that is rare.

Tips for 200KB

Crop first so the subject fills the frame. For documents, flatten the page and avoid shadows from your hand or phone. If the form also gives pixel dimensions, use the resize image tool to set them and enter 200KB as the maximum.
