What the browser does — and where it stops.
PixelNook re-encodes pixels with your browser’s canvas codecs. File size and visual quality can vary by browser, format, dimensions, and source image; a requested maximum size is a target, not a guarantee.

Questions, answered.
What metadata does this remove?+
Canvas re-export omits common EXIF, camera, GPS, and software metadata from the new image file.
Does PixelNook read my location?+
No. Processing is local and PixelNook does not inspect or transmit embedded metadata.
Will the pixels change?+
The image is re-encoded, so lossy formats can change slightly. Choose PNG for a lossless pixel export.
