PNG to JPG
Convert PNG images to JPG in your browser. Transparent backgrounds become white. Quality slider for fine-grained file-size control. Nothing is uploaded.
Runs in your browser — nothing uploaded
Convert a PNG image to JPG (or JPEG — same format, different name) in one click. Useful when you need the smaller file size of JPG for email, web upload widgets that reject PNG, or anywhere a photo doesn't need transparency.
Private by design — your data never leaves your device
How to use it
No account, no upload — it all happens on your device.
1
Drop a PNG file into the box, or click to choose from disk.
2
Adjust the quality slider — 85 is the default sweet spot.
3
Click Download. The new JPG arrives with the same filename and a .jpg extension.
When PNG → JPG is the right call
- Photographs. JPG was designed for photos. The same image saved from PNG to JPG at quality 85 is typically 5–10× smaller with no visible loss.
- Screenshots of natural scenes. Same logic as photographs.
- Uploads to legacy systems. A few CMSes, photo printers, and old-school photo apps refuse PNG. Convert once, upload, move on.
- Email attachments.Inboxes reject big attachments; shrinking the photo helps more than you'd think.
When to stay on PNG
- You need transparency. JPG paints transparent pixels white. Use WebP if you need both small size and an alpha channel.
- Logos, icons, screenshots of UI. Sharp edges and flat colors compress beautifully in PNG and look worse in JPG (haloing around text and lines).
- Source-of-truth images. JPG is lossy. Each re-save degrades quality. Keep a PNG as your master and export JPGs from it.
Tips
- Quality 75–85is invisible to most eyes. Below 60, you'll start to see banding in skies and blocking in skin tones.
- If you need bulk conversion, the Image Compressor tool handles many files at once with the same JPG output.
- If your PNG was just for transparency, consider WebP via the WebP Converter — same compression as JPG, keeps the alpha channel.
- Going the other way? See JPG to PNG.
Frequently asked
What happens to a transparent PNG's background?
JPG doesn't support transparency, so the transparent pixels are filled with white before encoding. If you need to keep transparency, stay on PNG or convert to WebP, both of which preserve an alpha channel.
Will the JPG be smaller than the PNG?
Almost always, for photographs and screenshots with lots of color. PNG is lossless and stores noise inefficiently, while JPG is a lossy photo codec — at quality 85 a typical PNG photo shrinks 70–90%. Logos and pixel art may not — they were already small as PNG and JPG can add artifacts to sharp edges.
Does my PNG get uploaded?
No. The image is decoded into a HTML canvas in your browser and re-encoded as JPG client-side. Nothing leaves your device — close the tab and the file is gone.
