✅ Best Practices for Using Online Tools
Follow these recommendations to get the most out of online tools:
- Always Keep Original Files Before processing any file, make sure you have a backup of the original. While our tools are reliable, it's always good practice to preserve your source files.
- Check Output Quality After processing, always verify the output meets your requirements before deleting the original. For images and PDFs, check quality, clarity, and completeness.
- Use Appropriate Tools for Your Task Choose the right tool for your specific need. For example, use Image Compressor for reducing file size, not Image Resizer, which changes dimensions.
- Understand File Size Limits While most tools work with files up to 50MB, extremely large files may process slowly or fail. Consider splitting large files when possible.
- Use Modern Browsers For best performance, use updated versions of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge. These browsers support all modern web technologies our tools require.
- Clear Browser Cache Occasionally If you encounter issues, clearing your browser cache can resolve most problems. This removes temporary files that might interfere with tool functionality.
