Media & File Utilities

Tools for modifying images, compressing documents, and managing media files in your browser.

File tasks that used to require desktop software now run directly in the browser. Image resizing, PDF merging, and audio trimming happen in your browser. The video page calculates bitrate for a size budget; it does not encode video. Files you select stay in the browser. The site uses aggregate Google Analytics. This matters when working with client files, medical documents, or personal media you would not normally upload to a third-party service.

What these tools cover

  • Meme Generator — Create custom image memes with classic top and bottom text.
  • PDF Merger — Merge multiple PDFs in your browser.
  • Image Resizer — Batch resize and compress images.
  • Video Compress — Calculate optimal bitrates for video compression.
  • Audio Trimmer — Cut and trim MP3 files.
  • Color Picker — Extract colors from images and convert HEX/RGB.

How to get accurate results

For images, set output dimensions to your actual required display size — resizing to the exact pixel dimensions eliminates most file size without quality loss, while oversizing wastes bandwidth and undersizing creates blurry results. For video, calculate a target bitrate here, then encode with a desktop tool such as Handbrake — platform size limits change, so confirm the destination's current cap. Arrange PDF pages in the correct order before merging, since rearranging requires restarting the process.

When to use these tools

  • Resizing product images to the exact pixel dimensions required by a storefront or CMS upload spec
  • Merging multiple PDF documents into one for submission, printing, or sharing with a client
  • Trimming an audio file to a specific length before embedding it in a presentation or video
  • Planning a video bitrate to fit a size budget before encoding in Handbrake or desktop FFmpeg
  • Extracting the exact HEX or RGB value of a color from an image to match it in a design tool

Frequently Asked Questions

What media tools are available?

Image resizer and compressor, video bitrate calculator (does not encode or load FFmpeg.wasm), PDF merger, QR code generator, barcode generator, color picker and converter, meme generator, and audio trimmer.

Are files uploaded to a server?

File tools process locally using browser APIs — Canvas API for images, PDF-lib for PDFs. The video page is a bitrate calculator: no FFmpeg.wasm and no video file upload. Files you select stay in the browser. The site uses aggregate Google Analytics.

What is the file size limit for video compression?

This video tool does not encode files, so there is no upload or RAM file-size cap. It calculates bitrate from duration and a target size you enter.

Can I use these tools for confidential files?

Image, PDF, and audio tools process files in the browser. The video page does not accept a video file. Tool inputs stay in the browser. The site uses aggregate Google Analytics.
