Output settings

Choosing output settings

Practical defaults for size, quality, format, and naming, and when to change them.

4 min read

Size

Use Fit within when images have different shapes and you just need them no larger than a limit, such as 1920 pixels wide for a website. Each image keeps its own proportions.

Use an exact size when every file must match, such as square marketplace listings. Crop to fill trims the edges; Pad to fit keeps the whole image and adds a background color around it.

Resize settings with 1600 by 1600 pixels, proportions unlocked and Pad to fit selected
Example: unlock proportions, enter 1600 × 1600 pixels and select Pad to fit to keep the whole product. Select image to enlarge.

Quality

Quality affects JPG and WebP output. 75–82 suits most web photos; 85–90 is better for large images where texture matters. Below 40, blocky artifacts become noticeable.

  • Smaller: 60
  • Balanced: 75
  • High: 85
  • Maximum: 95
Compression quality at 75 with Balanced selected and a recommended quality note
Start with a moderate quality setting for JPG or WebP, then inspect the exported file size and detail. Select image to enlarge.

Format

WebP often makes small files and supports transparency. JPG is a compatible choice for photos. PNG is lossless and keeps transparency, but photos can become large.

When converting images with transparent areas to JPG, choose the color that should fill those areas.

Output format choices for WebP, JPG and PNG with WebP selected
Choose the format the destination accepts. WebP and PNG can keep transparency; JPG needs a solid background. Select image to enlarge.

Naming

Patterns combine your own text with placeholders: {n} for a sequence number, {name} for the original name, and {date} for the local calendar date captured when a run starts. Prefix and suffix are added around the pattern.

With more than one image, include {n} or {name} so names stay unique. The preview in the Rename tab lists the first planned names so you can check them.
