How JPEG compression works
JPEG uses lossy compression to remove image detail that is less noticeable at normal viewing sizes. A higher quality setting keeps more detail, while a lower setting creates a smaller file.
For the best result, compress from the original image rather than repeatedly saving an already-compressed file.
