Go to JPG → PNG ConverterWhy convert JPG to PNG?
JPG uses lossy compression and doesn't support transparency; PNG is lossless and supports an alpha channel. Switch to PNG when you need a transparent background (logos, icons, screenshots to overlay on another design) or when you'll keep re-editing the image and don't want to accumulate quality loss with every save.
What you need to know
- PNG has no lossy compression: reopening and resaving it doesn't degrade quality, unlike JPG.
- Only PNG supports true transparency (alpha channel); JPG always fills transparent areas with a solid background color.
- The resulting PNG will be larger than the original JPG, especially for photos with lots of colors and detail.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my image get bigger after converting from JPG to PNG?
Because PNG doesn't use lossy compression: it stores every pixel exactly, which produces a larger file, especially for photos with lots of colors and textures.
When should I use PNG instead of JPG?
When you need transparency (logos, icons, overlays) or when you'll re-edit the image multiple times and want to avoid accumulated quality loss.
Does converting JPG to PNG improve image quality?
No. If the original JPG already has compression artifacts, converting to PNG keeps them as-is; it just prevents any new loss from that point on.
