Responsive Images

In Framer, responsive images help pages load faster and look sharp by serving suitable image sizes instead of forcing every visitor to download oversized assets.

  • Landing Page

    General

    A standalone page designed for a specific marketing goal, typically with focused messaging and a single call to action. Unlike general website pages, landing pages minimize distractions to maximize conversions. Test landing page variations systematically—small changes in headlines, images, or CTAs can significantly impact results.

  • Pixel

    General

    The smallest unit of a digital display, a single point of color that combines with millions of others to form images. Understanding pixel dimensions helps you provide appropriate image sizes for different devices. Retina displays pack more pixels into the same space, requiring higher-resolution images for sharp display.

  • Responsive Image

    Responsive

    An image that adapts to different screen sizes and resolutions, serving appropriately sized versions for each context. Responsive images improve performance by avoiding unnecessarily large downloads on small screens. Framer handles responsive images automatically, serving optimized versions.

  • Compression

    Performance

    The process of reducing file sizes by removing redundant data, making assets faster to download and cheaper to serve. Image compression can reduce file sizes by 50-80% with minimal visual quality loss using formats like WebP. Framer automatically optimizes images for web delivery while preserving quality where it matters most.

  • DPI

    Media

    Dots Per Inch—a measure of print resolution indicating how many ink dots fit in one inch, affecting print quality and file size. Higher DPI produces sharper prints but larger files. For web, focus on PPI (pixels per inch) and responsive images rather than DPI.

  • Export layers

    Framer

    In Framer workflows, exportable layers help teams move graphics, images, and design assets between site production, marketing, and documentation needs.

  • Asset library

    Media

    Framer asset libraries help teams keep visual materials organized and reusable, so collaborators can build pages with consistent media and brand resources.

  • Global CDN

    Performance

    Framer uses global delivery infrastructure to help pages, images, scripts, and assets reach visitors quickly across regions, improving perceived speed and reliability.
