Why turn a PNG into a JPG
PNG stores an exact copy of every pixel, which makes it large for photos. JPG uses smart compression that throws away detail your eye barely notices, so a photo saved as JPG can be a fraction of the PNG size. If a PNG photo is too big to upload or email, converting to JPG is the quick fix.
Transparent areas turn white
PNG can have see-through areas. JPG cannot hold transparency, so any clear part of the image becomes solid white when you convert. That is fine for photos, which have no transparency, but keep it in mind for a logo or a cut-out picture, where you may want to stay with PNG.
When to keep the PNG
PNG is the better choice for screenshots, logos, line art, and anything with sharp text or hard edges, because JPG can add fuzzy specks around them. Use JPG for photos and PNG for graphics. This tool is for the times you have a photo saved as a heavy PNG.
FAQ
Why is my PNG so large?
PNG keeps every pixel exactly, with no quality loss. For a detailed photo that means a big file. JPG trades a tiny bit of quality for a much smaller size.
Will I lose quality converting to JPG?
A little, since JPG is lossy. At the default quality the change is very hard to see. Lower quality settings make smaller files with more visible loss.
What happens to transparent parts?
They turn white. JPG does not support transparency. Keep the PNG if you need clear areas.
Should I use JPG for a screenshot?
Usually not. Screenshots have sharp text, which JPG can blur. PNG keeps text crisp. Use JPG for photos.
Are my files private?
Yes. The conversion runs in your browser. Nothing is uploaded or saved.
When should I turn a PNG into a JPG?
For photos and screenshots you want smaller. Convert PNG to JPG and the file often drops to a fraction of its size. PNG to JPEG is the same conversion, just the longer name for the format.
