Frequently asked questions about Image Mockup Generator

Short, accurate answers to the questions readers ask most often about using Image Mockup Generator for images.

Tool:Image Mockup Generator

If you've ended up here, you have a image and a specific job: common questions. The defaults most software ships with aren't tuned for that — they're tuned for "archive everything at maximum quality," which is the opposite of what you need now.

Use the tool: Image Mockup Generator — Runs entirely on your device using open web standards.

Why common questions needs different settings

A image for common questions optimises for things the original image doesn't care about: small enough to upload quickly, compatible with whatever software the recipient is using, and free of embedded metadata that could leak personal information. The defaults give you the opposite — large, high-quality, metadata-rich. Useful for some jobs, wrong for this one.

What to verify before sending

Quick check-list once Image Mockup Generator finishes:

  • Open the result. Make sure it looks right at the size the recipient will actually see it.
  • Check the file size. Match it against the limit you're targeting.
  • Confirm the file extension. Sometimes you need to rename — for example, a recipient who expects .jpg won't necessarily accept .jpeg.
  • Send a test to yourself first. Open the test on the same device the recipient will use, if you can.

Frequently asked questions

Can I undo the compression later?

No — compression is one-way. Always keep the original image archived somewhere, and treat the compressed version as a send-only copy.

What if the recipient asks for the original?

Keep the original. Image Mockup Generator produces a copy; the source file you dragged in is never modified.

Does compressing a image make it look unprofessional for common questions?

Not when done right. Sensible compression at the "balanced" preset produces output indistinguishable from the original to the human eye, even at half the size.

Is Image Mockup Generator safe for sensitive images like a resume or visa documents?

Yes — every step happens locally in your browser. The image never leaves your device because there is no server in the loop.
