PNG is perfect for graphics, but for photographs it produces needlessly huge files. Converting a photographic PNG to JPG can cut the size by 80% or more — ideal when you don't need transparency and just want a small, shareable image.
PNG is a lossless format with full alpha transparency, so it never degrades and is the standard for logos, icons, screenshots and any graphic that needs a transparent background.
JPG is the most widely supported image format in the world and the default for digital photographs. It uses lossy compression that discards detail the eye is unlikely to notice, producing small files that open everywhere.

How PNG and JPG compare
PNG is best for logos, icons, screenshots, graphics with transparency, and images you will edit repeatedly. JPG is best for photographs, complex images with many colours, and anywhere you need maximum compatibility.
Here's how the two formats line up on the things that matter:
| Property | PNG | JPG |
|---|---|---|
| Compression | Lossless | Lossy |
| Transparency | Yes | No |
| Animation | No | No |
| Typical file size | Larger than JPG/WebP for photos; efficient for flat graphics | Small files for photos; size scales with the quality setting |
| Support | Universal — supported everywhere | Universal — every browser, OS, and app since the 1990s |
| Best for | Logos, icons, screenshots, graphics with transparency, and images you will edit repeatedly. | Photographs, complex images with many colours, and anywhere you need maximum compatibility. |
Things to keep in mind
- JPG does not support transparency. Any transparent areas in your PNG will be filled with a solid background colour.
Quality, file size and privacy
JPG uses adjustable compression, so you can balance quality against file size with the quality slider. A setting around 80 is visually indistinguishable from the original for most images while keeping files small.
Every conversion runs on your own device, so you can convert as many PNG files as you like — with no limits, no watermarks and no sign-up, and nothing is ever uploaded.
Frequently asked questions
Are my files uploaded when I convert PNG to JPG?
No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser — your PNG files never leave your device, so it's completely private.
Is the PNG to JPG converter free?
Yes. Converting PNG to JPG is free and unlimited, with no sign-up and no watermark.
Can I convert many PNG files at once?
Yes — drop multiple PNG files and download them individually or as a single zip.
What happens to transparency when converting to JPG?
JPG doesn't support transparency, so transparent areas are filled with a solid background when converting to JPG. If you need to keep transparency, convert to PNG or WebP instead.
Will the JPG file be smaller than my PNG?
Usually yes for photographs, and you can use the quality slider to make the JPG as small as you need.
Do I need to install any software?
No. The PNG to JPG converter runs in your web browser, so there's nothing to download or install — on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android or iPhone.
Will converting reduce the image quality?
You control it. JPG uses adjustable compression; a quality around 80 looks identical to the original for most images while keeping the file small.
