Image guides

Prepare better images before they reach your audience.

Practical workflows for turning image text into editable content, reducing page weight, and sizing a visual for the platform where it will be seen.

A reliable image workflow

Keep the original

Save a full-resolution copy before converting, compressing, or cropping. It is the fallback if a platform needs a different format later.

Make text legible first

For OCR, use a sharp, well-lit image and crop out decoration. Review names, dates, and numbers manually; OCR can confuse similar characters.

Export for the destination

Resize for the actual placement, then compress a copy. Check it at the size people will see—not only at 100% zoom on your desktop.
