Why Convert JPG to PNG?

While JPG is great for compact photo storage, PNG offers lossless quality and transparency support. Converting to PNG ensures no further quality degradation occurs when you edit, crop, or reprocess the image — every save preserves pixel-perfect accuracy.

PNG is the preferred format for graphics work, web design, presentations, and any workflow where you need to layer images over backgrounds. Logos, icons, UI mockups, and screenshots all benefit from PNG's lossless compression and alpha channel.

Common scenarios: preparing images for graphic design projects, adding images to presentations with custom backgrounds, creating web assets that need transparency, preserving quality for further editing, and using images in applications that handle PNG better than JPG.

JPG vs PNG: When to Choose PNG

Understanding when PNG is the better choice:

AttributeJPGPNG
Quality on EditDegrades with each save (generation loss)No quality loss on re-save
TransparencyNot supportedFull alpha channel support
File SizeSmaller for photosLarger, but lossless
Text RenderingCompression artifacts around text edgesCrisp, sharp text rendering
Best Use CaseFinal photo distributionEditing, design, and web assets

Converting JPG to PNG won't restore quality lost during JPG compression, but it prevents any further degradation and adds transparency support for your workflow.

Private Browser Conversion

Your JPG image is converted to PNG entirely within your web browser using the Canvas API. No data is sent to any server. Your images remain completely private on your device throughout the process.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. JPG compression permanently removes data. Converting to PNG preserves what's left without further loss, but cannot restore the original quality. The benefit is that subsequent edits and saves won't degrade the image further.
