PNG to JPG

Convert between the two formats everyone expects: flatten a PNG to a smaller JPG for email, or turn a JPG into a PNG before editing.

How to use it

Add your images

Drop one or more PNG or JPG files, or click to browse. Mixed batches are fine.

Choose the direction

Pick JPG to make files smaller, or PNG when you need lossless output or transparency.

Set the quality

Quality applies only when the target is JPG. 0.92 stays close to the original; lower values shrink the file further.

Cap the dimensions if needed

The maximum dimension limits the long edge of the result. Leave it at 0 to keep the original size exactly.

Convert and download

Each file is converted and listed with its new size, so you can compare before saving.

Common issues

A logo saved as JPG shows a ragged edge

JPG blurs sharp boundaries and cannot hold transparency, so a logo on a transparent background arrives with a boxy white or ragged border. Keep logos in PNG.

Text in a converted screenshot becomes fuzzy

Lossy compression smears fine detail. For screenshots that contain words, PNG is the correct target, so choose the PNG direction and set quality aside.

Transparent regions turn white in the JPG

That is expected: JPG has no transparency channel, so transparency is flattened to solid white. No setting can preserve it in a JPG.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between PNG and JPG?
PNG is lossless and supports transparency but produces larger files. JPG is lossy and much smaller for photographs, but has no transparency channel.
What happens to transparent areas in a JPG?
They are filled with solid white, because JPG cannot store transparency.
Should I use PNG or JPG for screenshots?
PNG. Screenshots contain sharp edges and flat colour, which is exactly what PNG handles well and JPG smears.
Should I use PNG or JPG for photographs?
JPG. Photos contain smooth gradients where lossy compression is invisible and the size saving is large.
Is this service free?
Yes, and it needs no account. There is no watermark and no file limit beyond your device memory.
If I convert to JPG and back, is the quality restored?
No. The JPG step is lossy, so information is gone for good. Going back to PNG gives you a PNG container holding the already-degraded picture, not the original quality.
Can I convert many files at once?
Yes. Add a whole batch and every file is converted and listed separately.
Does the tool change the image size?
Only if you set a maximum dimension that is smaller than the source. Otherwise the pixels and the shape are untouched: PNG to JPG changes how the picture is encoded, not the picture itself.
Which direction should I choose for a logo?
PNG. Logos usually have flat colour, sharp edges and often transparency, all of which JPG damages. Keep logos as PNG and reserve JPG for photographs.
