# Compress images for LinkedIn ads.

Drop your photos and download them under 5 MB, the file-size limit in LinkedIn ads's image rules. The quality is lowered first and the pixel dimensions only when needed; the photo is never cropped. It runs in your browser; nothing is uploaded.

## Compressing for LinkedIn ads, answered.

**What is the image file-size limit on LinkedIn ads?**

5 MB per image, according to the rules summarised in the LinkedIn ads guide. This tool saves each photo as a JPG under that size.

**Is JPG accepted on LinkedIn ads?**

Yes. The formats LinkedIn ads lists are JPEG, PNG, and GIF.

**Does compressing for LinkedIn ads change the pixel size?**

Only when lowering the quality is not enough to get under 5 MB. The rules checked here state no minimum pixel size, so the tool stops before the photo falls under a quarter of its original width.

**Where do these figures come from?**

From LinkedIn Ads Guide — Single Image Ads Specifications; Carousel Ads Specifications; Document Ads Specifications; Text Ads Specifications; Conversation Ads Specifications; Event Ads Specifications, read on 12 October 2026.
