Convert JPG to PNG: format and use cases

PNG output is lossless for the conversion step and is supported by common apps and websites. Converting an existing JPG to PNG does not restore detail already lost to JPG compression, and it can make the file larger.

Why convert Convert JPG to PNG?

  • Use PNG when the website, app, or device you are sending the image to does not accept JPG.
  • Compare the formats before converting: PNG supports transparency and lossless encoding.
  • For images that already use lossy compression, changing formats cannot restore detail that was removed in an earlier export.
