How to use PNG to JPG

  1. Add your PNG files

    Drop in one or a batch.

  2. Set the quality

    Around 85% is a good default for photographic content.

  3. Choose a background colour

    JPG has no transparency; any transparent area is filled, usually with white.

  4. Convert and download

    Compare file sizes — for photographs the reduction is usually dramatic.

When to use PNG to JPG

  • Cutting file size for photographs mistakenly saved as PNG
  • Meeting an upload form that only accepts JPG
  • Preparing photos for a website where PNG would be wastefully large
  • Converting screenshots of photos for sharing

FAQ

Transparent areas are filled with the background colour you choose (white by default) since JPG does not support transparency.
Yes. Drop as many PNG files as you like and they will all be converted with the same quality settings.
Some, because JPG is lossy. At 85% quality the difference is invisible for photographs. For screenshots and images with text or sharp edges, the artefacts are noticeable and PNG is the better format.
They are filled with a solid colour, white unless you choose otherwise, because JPG has no transparency channel. If you need transparency, use PNG or WebP.
For photographs, typically 70-90% smaller — the difference is often dramatic. For flat-colour graphics, JPG may actually be larger than PNG as well as looking worse.
Screenshots, logos, line art, diagrams, and anything needing transparency. JPEG compression is built for photographic detail and handles hard edges poorly.

About PNG to JPG

PNG and JPG are designed for different content, and the most common image-handling mistake is using the wrong one. PNG is lossless and excels at flat colour, sharp edges and transparency — logos, screenshots, diagrams. JPG is lossy and excels at photographs, where its compression is extremely efficient and its artefacts are least visible.

A photograph saved as PNG can easily be five to ten times larger than the same image as JPG at a quality nobody could distinguish. That is the main reason to convert, and on a website it translates directly into slower pages.

The catch is transparency. JPG has no alpha channel, so any transparent region has to be filled with a solid colour at conversion time — white by default. If your PNG has a transparent background and the destination needs that transparency, converting to JPG is the wrong move; use WebP instead, which offers both transparency and efficient compression.

Tips and limits

  • Convert photographs; keep logos, screenshots and diagrams as PNG.
  • Transparency is lost. Choose the fill colour deliberately rather than accepting white.
  • 85% quality is a sensible default for photographic content.
  • WebP gives you transparency and small files — often the better answer than either.
  • Converting a screenshot of text to JPG produces visible fringing around the letters.
