Why this size
When PNG is the right format
PNG is lossless: every pixel stays exactly as it is, which keeps text and sharp edges crisp. It also supports transparency, and this converter keeps transparent areas as they are.
The trade-off is size. A PNG photo is often five to ten times bigger than a JPG, so use PNG for screenshots, logos, graphics and images you will edit again, rather than camera photos.

Common problems and fixes
- The PNG is too big to uploadPNG is lossless, so photos get large. For photos, use JPG, which is often five to ten times smaller.
- The background is not transparentChanging the format does not remove a background. Use the background remover to cut the subject out.
- The image is not any sharperPNG keeps the image exactly as it is, but it cannot bring back detail that an earlier JPG already lost.

How the tool works
The image is decoded in your browser and saved again in the new format at a high quality setting. PNG and WebP keep transparent areas; JPG and GIF get a white background. A JPEG converted to JPG without a size limit keeps every byte and only changes the file name. Everything happens in your browser; your images are never uploaded.
