JPG vs PNG
| Characteristic | JPG | PNG |
|---|---|---|
| Compression | Lossy | Lossless |
| Transparency | No | Yes |
| Typical strength | Photographs | Graphics and transparent images |
Converting JPG to PNG changes the container format, but it cannot recover detail that was discarded by previous JPG compression.
What to Expect After Conversion
The PNG will look exactly like the JPG. Converting does not recover detail that the JPG already discarded, and it does not add a transparent background. Because PNG is lossless, the file is usually larger than the JPG, especially for photos.
When Converting Makes Sense
- You need a PNG file because a form, design tool or workflow requires it.
- You will edit and save the image several times and want to avoid further JPG compression loss.
- The image is a screenshot, text or line art with sharp edges.
Converting Several Files
You can add several JPG files. Multiple results are downloaded together in one ZIP; a single file downloads on its own.
Supported Files and Output
Accepts JPG images up to 50 MB each. One file downloads as a PNG; several download together as converted-png.zip.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does converting JPG to PNG improve quality?
No. It only prevents further loss from later saves.
Why is my PNG bigger than the JPG?
PNG stores every pixel without loss, so photographs produce large files.
Will the background become transparent?
No. Removing a background needs an image editor.
