Quick answer
To edit a photo online free, pick a tool above — for example Compress Image to hit a 100 KB upload limit, Remove EXIF Data to strip GPS location before sharing, or WebP to PNG to open a saved web image anywhere — drop in your files and download the result. Everything runs on your device.
Which image tool do I need?
- File too big for an email or form? Use Compress Image and type a target size such as 100 KB.
- Need exact pixel dimensions? Use Resize Image with presets for Instagram, stories, Full HD and passport photos.
- Wrong shape? Crop Image trims photos to 1:1, 4:5, 16:9 or 9:16 at full resolution.
- Sideways or mirrored? Rotate Image rotates 90°/180°/270° and flips horizontally or vertically.
- Want credit for your photos? Watermark Image adds your name in a corner, the centre or tiled.
- Sharing photos with strangers? Remove EXIF Data strips GPS coordinates, camera details and timestamps.
- Wrong format? The Image Converter switches between JPG, PNG and WebP, with one-click WebP to PNG, WebP to JPG, PNG to JPG and JPG to PNG pages.
Working with a whole batch
Every image tool accepts as many files as you can drop on it. Each photo is processed one at a time so a large batch cannot exhaust your device's memory, and a progress indicator shows which image is being worked on. When the run finishes, a single image downloads on its own and a batch is packed into one ZIP archive. If an individual file turns out to be damaged or in a format your browser cannot decode, it is skipped and named in the summary rather than failing the whole batch.
JPG, PNG or WebP?
JPG is the universal photo format: small, lossy and accepted by every device and upload form, but without transparency. PNG is lossless and supports transparency, so it suits logos, screenshots and text, though photos saved as PNG are large. WebP offers both lossy and lossless compression plus transparency, and is typically 25–35% smaller than JPG at the same quality — ideal for websites, less so for older software. As a rule, share photos as JPG, keep graphics as PNG and publish on the web as WebP.
How PDFWix processes your images
Each tool decodes your picture with the browser's built-in image decoder, applies the change on an HTML canvas, and re-encodes it as JPG, PNG or WebP. Because the work happens inside your browser tab, there is no upload, no waiting in a queue and no copy of your photo on anyone else's computer. Phone orientation tags are applied before editing, so rotated and cropped results look the same everywhere. Remove EXIF Data is the exception: it rewrites the file container directly and copies the compressed pixels across untouched, so cleaning metadata costs no quality at all.
Working with images and PDFs together
Image tools edit the pictures; PDF tools handle documents. These tools bridge the two:
- JPG to PDF — Convert JPG, PNG and other images to PDF in seconds.
- HEIC to JPG — Convert iPhone HEIC photos to universally compatible JPG images.
- Extract Images from PDF — Pull every embedded photo and graphic out of a PDF at original quality.
- PDF to JPG — Convert each PDF page into a JPG, or extract images from PDFs.
- PDF to PNG — Convert each PDF page into a lossless PNG with transparency preserved.

Frequently asked questions
Are the PDFWix image tools free?
Yes. Compress, resize, crop, rotate, watermark, clean and convert images free, with no watermark added to your files.
Are my photos uploaded to a server?
No. Every image tool runs on your browser's own canvas engine, so photos never leave your device.
Which image formats are supported?
JPG/JPEG, PNG and WebP as input and output, plus GIF and BMP as input. iPhone HEIC photos are handled by HEIC to JPG.
Can I process many images at once?
Yes. Every image tool accepts batches, shows per-image progress, and hands the results back as one ZIP for signed-in users.
Do the tools remove my photos' location data?
Only Remove EXIF Data does that deliberately, and it also shows you the GPS coordinates, camera and timestamp it found before stripping them.
How are the image tools different from the PDF tools?
Image tools change the pictures themselves — size, shape, format, branding and metadata. PDF tools work on documents. To turn images into a PDF use JPG to PDF; to get images out of a PDF use Extract Images from PDF or PDF to JPG.
