What is a RAW Export Compressor?
A RAW export compressor shrinks images that have been exported from RAW editing software like Adobe Lightroom, Capture One, DxO PhotoLab, Darktable, or RawTherapee. When photographers export edited RAW files to JPEG, PNG, or TIFF, the resulting files are often far larger than needed for their intended use, especially when exported at maximum quality settings. This tool lets you take those exported files and compress them further to a specific target size, automatically adjusting quality, and resolution if truly necessary, to get your file as close to that number as possible without going over.
Why You Might Need to Compress RAW Exports
RAW editing software typically exports at maximum quality by default, producing JPEG files of 10-20MB and TIFF or PNG files that can be 50MB or more per image. While this is ideal for archiving and printing, it is far too large for web galleries, client proofing, email delivery, portfolio websites, and social media. Re-exporting from the RAW editor at lower quality settings means going back to the editing software each time you need a different size, which is time-consuming when you have already exported a batch. Compressing the existing exports directly is faster and gives you precise control over the final file size without reopening your editing workflow.
Use Cases for RAW Export Compression
This tool is useful for compressing Lightroom and Capture One exports before uploading to portfolio sites, reducing exported photo file sizes for client delivery via email or file sharing, shrinking RAW-processed images for web galleries and blog posts, preparing exported photos for social media where smaller files upload faster, and compressing exported event or wedding photos for online proofing galleries. Because the target size is adjustable, the same tool works whether you need a compact 150KB web image or a higher-quality 800KB portfolio piece, without needing to re-export from your RAW editor.
