Workflow outline

Email Attachment Under 2 MB Example

A workflow example for sending several photos by email without creating oversized attachments.

Who this is for

A user sending proofs, documents, receipts, or product photos where the message must stay lightweight.

Signals to check

  • Several images together exceed an email or form limit.
  • The recipient only needs to review, not print at full quality.
  • The sender does not want to upload private photos to a third-party converter.

Step-by-step workflow

  1. Resize large photos before compression because dimensions often matter more than quality sliders.
  2. Use JPG or WebP for photographic content.
  3. Check total attachment size, not only individual file size.
  4. Send processed copies and keep originals locally.

Good image workflows name the target platform, required file size, dimensions, format, and the visual details that must survive export. The useful result is not just a score or file; it is a small record that explains what was checked, what changed, and what should be reviewed next.

Known limitation

Browser processing is private and convenient, but users should still keep originals and inspect exported copies before publishing. Keep an editable copy and re-run the workflow when the destination requirement or policy changes.
