PNG to JPG Converter

Convert PNG images to JPG in bulk. For photos, JPGs are usually much smaller and open everywhere. Conversion runs in your browser, so nothing is uploaded, with no sign-up or file limits.

How to use PNG to JPG

  1. Drop PNG files here or choose files.
  2. Each one is converted to JPG straight away.
  3. Adjust the Quality, or pick a Target file size (20 to 500 KB, or a Custom one) and an optional Minimum size for upload forms.
  4. Download each JPG, or Download all as a .zip.

Frequently asked questions

Why convert PNG to JPG?

For photos, JPG files are usually several times smaller than PNG, so they upload and share faster, and some forms accept only JPG.

Will converting PNG to JPG lose quality?

A little, because JPG is lossy. At 80 to 85 the loss is invisible in photos, but sharp text, lines and flat colours can show fuzzy edges. Keep those as PNG, or use a quality of 95.

What happens to transparent areas?

JPG has no transparency, so transparent parts are filled with white. To keep transparency in a small file, use Image to WebP.

What quality should I use?

70–85 usually looks the same as the original. Go higher for images with sharp text or lines.

Are my files uploaded?

No. Conversion happens in your browser.

When not to convert

Logos, icons and screenshots with text often look worse as JPG and may not even get much smaller. Keep them as PNG or use WebP. For a form with a KB limit, set a Target file size here, or use compress to 50 KB. To go the other way, use JPG to PNG.
