PNG to JPG Converter
No upload · Runs in your browserWhy convert PNG to JPG
PNG is lossless, so photos saved as PNG are very large. If a phone screenshot or a photo exported as PNG is several MB and exceeds an email attachment or upload limit (often a few hundred KB to a few MB), converting to JPG alone usually cuts the size to a fraction. It's also needed when submitting to places that only accept JPG, such as some application portals.
What happens to a transparent background
JPG can't store transparency. Transparent areas, as in logos or cut-out images, are filled with the background color. The default is white; for images going on a dark web page, choose black or that page's background color so the edges don't look out of place. Semi-transparent shadows and anti-aliased edges are also blended with that color.
Keep these images as PNG
- Screenshots, charts and icons made mostly of text, lines and shapes: converting to JPG adds smudges along edges and saves little space.
- Logos that need a transparent background: saving as WebP keeps transparency while making them smaller.
If you need to hit a specific size (e.g. under 200KB), Compress finds the right quality automatically. See JPG format explained for pros and cons.
How to use
- Pick an output format in the options panel on the right (below on mobile). For JPG, WebP and AVIF you can set the quality, and for JPG you can choose a background color for transparent areas.
- Drag and drop your images or click to select them. Add several at once and they are converted one after another right away.
- If the original contains metadata such as camera model, date taken or GPS location, it is shown below. By default everything is removed; when saving as JPG you can also remove only the location or keep the original data.
- After changing options, click ‘Convert again with new settings’. Download results one by one or all at once as a ZIP.
