To avoid the issues that are being faced when uploading the bulk sized images in I-9 Section 2 or email errors while sending the packet with these overs sized attachments, an API is incorporated in the code to compress the images with size over 1.5 MB. All images with size greater than 1.5 MB and "jpg", "jpeg", "gif", "bmp" formats are downsized when added as attachments. Image uploads/attachments with "png" format or size less than 1.5 MB will not be downsized.

The compression ratio with which the images are downsized is given below:

0 - 1.5 MB - no downsize.

1.5 – 4 MB - .50 ratio

4 – 7 MB -.35 ratio

7 + MB - .15
