JPEG Compressor is an app for Windows that can give users the ability to quickly and freely shrink the file size on JPEG images. This can be helpful when trying to upload, store, or otherwise use many JPEG images that are large but don't need to be at 100% quality.

What are JPEGs

JPEGs are images in the file format that ends in .jpeg. JPEGs are a lossy file format, which means that they can be compressed to a great amount, but there will be some loss of quality. JPEGs are used often in emails, on websites, etc. where the image quality is important, but the size of the file is more important.

JPEG Compressor Features

JPEG Compressor does exactly what it sounds like from its name. It can take the files that you have that are in JPEG format and shrink down their file size without greatly changing the overall quality of the image. This application can also work in batch, taking many images from a folder and processing them. Not only will JPEG Compressor compress your JPEG images, but it can also convert them into a variety of other formats, such as JPG, BMP, TIFF, and GIF. Each of those formats has its own benefits and detractions.

Pros and Cons

JPEG Compressor is a very specialized application, so it may not work for everyone's use cases, but it may just be right for you.
