The Compression tab allows you to configure compression settings for your presentation. The lower the quality of images and audio/video objects, the smaller the size of the resulting file.

 

Compression
Preset            iSpring Suite offers four preset compression modes that optimize a presentation for the web with low or high connection speed, publishing it to the Local Network drive. You can also create up to five custom compression  presets to suit your needs.

You can save a custom preset by clicking the Save preset button. To delete a custom preset, click Delete.

  

Image Compression
