How do I convert PNG to JPEG in this tool?

Upload your PNG file, select JPEG as the output format, and click Convert. You can adjust the JPEG quality slider (1-100) to balance file size and fidelity. The conversion processes the raster image pixel-by-pixel, then encodes it with the JPEG codec. Download the result instantly.

Why should I convert PNG to JPEG instead of keeping PNG?

PNG is lossless and supports transparency, making it ideal for graphics, logos, and text. JPEG uses lossy compression and handles photographic color gradients far more efficiently, producing files 5-10x smaller at similar perceived quality for photos. Convert to JPEG when you're creating web galleries, sending email attachments, or uploading to platforms with size limits—but avoid it for images with sharp text or alpha-channel transparency.

What happens to transparency, DPI, and color profiles when converting PNG to JPEG?

JPEG does not support an alpha channel, so transparent areas in your PNG are flattened to a solid background (white by default; you can choose a custom background color). The image's DPI metadata and embedded ICC color profile (e.g., sRGB or Adobe RGB) are preserved in the JPEG header. Resolution (pixel dimensions) stays identical, but the pixel data is re-encoded with lossy DCT compression, so exact original pixels cannot be restored—especially in high-contrast edges and text.

PNG-TO-JPEG

PNG to JPEG: shrink photos ~80% with lossy DCT encoding. Retains DPI and ICC color profiles for screen and print. Perfect for camera images; avoid on line art.
