Understanding Image Sizes and Resizing Across Assignar

To ensure fast load time and successful image rendering across our platform, Assignar resizes images and reformats to a maximum of 6MB per image. 

Our platform manages images efficiently to ensure optimal performance and user experience. When captured and uploaded, an image is stored in its original, full size. However, resized versions of these images are created to handle the image sizes within our platform to meet specific use cases and processing requirements.

Here's an overview of the different resized images used in our platform:

1. Assignar Dashboard - Displayed in Browser and Download: 
   • All images displayed within the browser and downloaded directly from the platform are resized with a maximum width and height limit of 1920 x 1920 pixels.
   • The original image’s aspect ratio is preserved, meaning it won’t be distorted—it will only be resized within these limits.
2.  Email Attachments and WebHook Downloads:  
   • Images attached to emails or downloaded via the WebHook are resized with a maximum width and height limit of 3500 x 3500 pixels.
   • The aspect ratio is also preserved here, allowing the image to fit within these dimensions without distortion.

Example of an Image Resized for Browser Display

Let’s take an example of an image with the original dimensions of 2440 x 900 pixels:

• Original Image Size: 2440 (width) x 900 (height)
• Resizing Limit for Browser Display: 1920 x 1920 pixels (aspect ratio preserved)

To calculate the resized dimensions, we will scale down the image proportionally to fit within the 1920 x 1920 max dimensions:

Aspect Ratio Calculation: 

•  The original image has an aspect ratio of 2440:900 (or approximately 2.71:1).
• Resizing to Fit within 1920 Width: 
• Since the width of the original image (2440 pixels) is larger than 1920 pixels, we scaled it down to 1920 pixels wide while preserving the aspect ratio.
