How do I convert an SCR file to JPEG?

Upload your SCR file (a ZX Spectrum screenshot) to the converter, select JPEG as the output format, and click 'Convert'. The tool automatically converts the 256×192 pixel bitmap and its color attributes into a standard JPEG image. Download the result and use it anywhere on the web.

Why should I convert SCR to JPEG?

SCR is a niche format tied to ZX Spectrum emulators; it isn't supported by modern browsers, photo editors, or social platforms. JPEG gives you a universally viewable, compressed file that loads quickly and can be shared across devices. Converting ensures your pixel art is visible to everyone without special software.

How are SCR color attributes and resolution handled in the conversion to JPEG?

The converter reads the SCR's 256×192 resolution and its attribute-based color system (2 colors per 8x8 cell) to build a full RGB bitmap. Since JPEG is lossy, some minor blurring can occur near edges, but block colors and overall layout remain accurate. Transparency in SCR is not supported—any transparent or undefined areas are filled with white.
