Turn heavy PNG images into small JPG files for email, websites and upload forms - need the transparency kept? Use PNG to WebP instead.
Need it smaller still? Run the JPG through Compress JPG.
PNG keeps every pixel, so photos saved as PNG are huge.
The same photo as a JPG is often 80-90% smaller and looks the same - perfect for email attachments, upload limits and faster web pages.
Logos and screenshots with sharp edges are the exception: they often stay sharper and smaller as PNG.
| PNG | JPG | |

| Compression | Lossless | Lossy |
| Photos | Very big | Small |
| Transparency | Yes | No - filled with a colour |
| Text and logos | Razor sharp | Slight blur at low quality |
| Best for | Graphics, screenshots, editing | Photos, sharing |
Going the other way? JPG to PNG can even make the background transparent. Test files are in the PNG sample files.
Drop your PNG files into the box, keep quality 90 or pick a preset, and press Convert to JPG. More than two files come as a ZIP.
No. Your browser decodes the PNG and writes the JPG on your device.
JPG cannot store transparency, so those areas get the background colour you pick - white by default. To keep them transparent, use PNG to WebP.
A little, because JPG is lossy. At quality 90 you will not see it in photos; logos and text are best kept as PNG.
Photos often shrink by 80-90%. Flat graphics with few colours may shrink less, or even grow.
