Prepare photos for the web: dimensions, privacy and filenames
Reduce image dimensions, prepare copies without GPS data and use understandable filenames before publishing.
Preparing photos for the web is more than reducing quality. Start with useful dimensions, choose a format, then decide which metadata to retain. Keep a folder of originals so you can export again for a different destination.
Adapt dimensions to the destination
Use batch resizing to constrain width and height. An email preset suits everyday viewing; a larger web limit retains more detail. Aspect ratios are preserved. Choose compression by reviewing the downloaded image, particularly gradients and fine details.
A 1920 × 1920 limit turns a 6000 × 4000 landscape into 1920 × 1280. A 4000 × 6000 portrait becomes 1280 × 1920.
Batch resize & compressPrepare copies without GPS for public use
A file may contain GPS coordinates or camera information. Metadata cleaning generates a new image without copying this information. It does not hide visible content: an address, face or number plate may remain identifiable. The process re-encodes pixels, so avoid unnecessary repeated re-encoding.
Copies produced by resizing are already re-encoded without copying source EXIF. Use the cleaner when you want to clean a common image while preserving its dimensions.
Remove photo metadataChoose easy-to-find filenames
Clear filenames help colleagues and clients identify images. Batch renaming preserves original bytes and extensions without adding compression. Choose a project prefix and stable numbering, then review the filename mapping before downloading.
For a project, use entrance-project-001.jpg, entrance-project-002.jpg and so on. If file contents change, track the version to avoid mixing deliveries.
Batch photo renameShare your final selection
For private galleries or client exchanges, gather the final selection into a PhotoPartage album. For public use, also review framing, visible details and your permission to publish the images.
