PNG to JPG
Convert PNG images to JPEG format.
About this tool
The PNG to JPG Converter converts PNG images to the JPEG format, typically reducing file size significantly for photographic content. Use it when you need smaller files for web sharing, email, or platforms that don't require transparency.
How it works
- Upload your PNG file using the file picker or drag and drop.
- Optionally, adjust the output quality (higher quality = larger file).
- Click Convert to JPG - conversion happens in your browser.
- Download the resulting JPG file.
Example use cases
- Web optimisation: A 2 MB PNG photo converted to JPG at 85% quality often drops to 200-400 KB, loading much faster on web pages.
- Social media upload: Convert a PNG screenshot to JPG for faster upload to platforms like Facebook or WhatsApp that compress images anyway.
Frequently asked questions
What happens to transparent parts of my PNG?
Transparent pixels are filled with a solid colour (typically white) in the JPG output because JPEG does not support transparency channels.
What quality setting should I use?
80-90% is the sweet spot for most use cases - noticeable file-size reduction with minimal visible quality loss. Use 95%+ for print-quality outputs.
