Converting a PNG image to JPG
This PNG to JPG converter changes a PNG image into a JPG, with one extra decision: what color should sit behind any transparent areas. Choose a PNG, pick a background color, set the quality, and download the JPG. Converting PNG to JPG typically produces a much smaller file, which is why it suits photos and uploads. It is a one-step conversion in your browser.
When JPG is the practical choice
Use it when a form or platform accepts JPG but balks at PNG, when a screenshot is too large to email, or when a photo stored as PNG needs to shrink. For graphics with sharp text or line art you plan to keep editing, the PNG stays the better master.
Good to know
JPG has no transparency, so transparent pixels are filled with the background color you choose, white by default. Pick a color that matches the page or document where the JPG will sit, or the filled areas will stand out as blocks.
Frequently asked questions
What happens to the transparent parts of my PNG?
They become the background color you selected, because JPG cannot store transparency. If you do not pick a color, white is used. Choose the color before converting, since the fill cannot be undone afterwards.
Will text in my screenshot stay crisp?
JPG compression softens sharp edges a little, so fine text may look slightly less crisp than in the PNG. Use a high quality setting for screenshots, and keep the PNG if full sharpness matters.
Is my image uploaded anywhere?
No. The conversion takes place in your browser and the PNG is never sent to this site's server. The JPG, background fill included, is generated on your own device.
