What is PNG to JPG Converter?

PNG to JPG Converter is a free online tool that transforms PNG images into JPG/JPEG format. PNG files often contain transparency and use lossless compression, resulting in larger file sizes. JPG format uses efficient lossy compression, making files significantly smaller—ideal for photographs, website images, and email attachments. This tool processes conversions entirely in your browser using HTML5 Canvas, ensuring your images never leave your device. You can choose a background color to replace transparent areas and adjust quality settings to balance file size and visual fidelity, making it perfect for web optimization and reducing storage needs.

How to Use PNG to JPG Converter

  1. Upload PNG: Click "Choose PNG Image" and select a PNG file from your device.
  2. Preview Original: View your PNG image and see its current file size.
  3. Set Background Color: If your PNG has transparency, choose a background color (white, black, red, blue, or green) to fill transparent areas.
  4. Adjust Quality: Use the quality slider (50-100%) to control compression. Higher values = better quality but larger file size.
  5. Convert: Click "Convert to JPG" to transform your PNG to JPG format instantly.
  6. Review Result: See the converted JPG image and file size reduction (often 60-90% smaller).
  7. Download: Click "Download JPG" to save the converted .jpg file to your device.

FAQ

What happens to transparency in PNG files?
JPG format does not support transparency. This tool replaces transparent areas with your chosen background color (white, black, or other solid colors). Choose white for photos and general images.
Will I lose image quality?
JPG uses lossy compression, so there is a small quality reduction. At 90% quality, the difference is nearly imperceptible to the human eye, while file size is dramatically smaller. For critical images, use 95-100% quality.
Why is JPG smaller than PNG?
JPG uses efficient lossy compression optimized for photographs and complex images, while PNG uses lossless compression better suited for graphics, logos, and text. For photos, JPG is typically 60-90% smaller than PNG.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No. All conversion happens locally in your browser using JavaScript and Canvas API. Your images never leave your device.
Can I convert multiple PNGs at once?
Currently, the tool processes one image at a time. Convert each PNG individually and download the results.
