How to convert PNG to JPG
- Drop one or more PNG files into the box above.
- The output is already set to JPG. Adjust the quality slider if you want an even smaller file. 80–90% is a good balance.
- Click Convert and download your JPG files.
When should you use JPG instead of PNG?
PNG is perfect for logos and graphics, but it creates very large files for photos and detailed screenshots. JPG uses smart lossy compression that removes detail the eye barely notices, so the same image is often 70–90% smaller. Convert PNG to JPG when you need to:
- Attach images to an email without hitting size limits.
- Upload photos to a form, job portal or marketplace that has a file size cap.
- Speed up a website where images are slowing the page down.
- Save storage space on your phone or cloud drive.
What happens to transparency?
JPG cannot store transparent pixels. When you convert, any transparent areas are filled with white, which works well for most documents and websites. If you need to keep transparency and still want a small file, use PNG to WebP instead.
Private and unlimited
Your PNG files are converted inside your browser and never sent to a server. There is no daily limit, no watermark and no account. For photos that must fit a specific size, such as 100 KB, use compress image to 100 KB.
Frequently asked questions
Will I lose quality converting PNG to JPG?
JPG is lossy, but at 85–90% quality the difference is almost impossible to see in photos. Sharp text and flat graphics can show slight blurring at low quality.
What happens to the transparent background?
JPG does not support transparency, so transparent areas become white.
How much smaller will my file be?
For photos and screenshots, JPG is usually 60–90% smaller than PNG.
