JPG quality

92%

Higher quality keeps more detail. Lower quality usually creates a smaller JPG.

When should you use PNG to JPG?

Use JPG when file size matters more than transparency, such as blog photos, product images on white backgrounds, and image attachments where smaller files load faster.

The output keeps the original image dimensions, so this converter is useful when you only need to flatten transparency and reduce file size without redesigning the asset.

Common transparency mistakes

JPG does not support transparency. If your PNG has transparent areas, this tool fills those pixels with your selected background color before saving.

A frequent mistake is converting transparent UI graphics or logos to JPG without planning the background first. Use white for documents and product shots, or choose the actual page color if the image will sit on a colored surface.

Real file-size tradeoffs

A quality value around 85 to 92 usually gives a good balance between file size and image clarity. That range works well for many screenshots, thumbnails, and product photos.

For example, a 2.4 MB transparent PNG product image may drop under 500 KB as JPG, but thin text and sharp edges can soften. Use a higher value for UI captures and a lower value when smaller downloads matter more than edge sharpness.

Example output

Input
Output
A transparent PNG screenshot or product image
A flattened JPG file using the selected quality and background color

The browser draws the PNG onto a canvas, fills transparent areas with the selected background, and saves the result as a JPG file. This is useful for flattening assets before publishing, but it is not a good fit for images that still depend on alpha transparency.

FAQ

Does this upload my PNG?

No. The conversion runs locally in your browser with Canvas APIs. The PNG is not sent to a server by this tool.

Why does transparency disappear?

JPG files do not support transparent pixels, so transparent PNG areas are flattened onto the background color you choose.

Will JPG reduce image quality?

JPG uses lossy compression. Higher quality settings preserve more detail, while lower settings usually create smaller files.

When should I keep the original PNG instead?

Keep the PNG if you still need transparency, repeated editing, or perfectly sharp edges around text, diagrams, and logos.
