PNG to JPG: when smaller is the right call

Why PNG files get so big

PNG stores every pixel exactly. That is perfect for logos and interface graphics, but a full-screen screenshot or a photo can run to several megabytes. JPG trades a little invisible detail for a file that is often far smaller.

Choosing a quality value

The slider runs from 10 to 100. At 85, photos look the same to most eyes. Text screenshots are more demanding: use 90 or above so letters stay clean. Around 60 to 70 is for when an upload limit leaves you no choice.

Transparent areas turn white

JPG has no way to store transparency, so any see-through area is filled with white. For a logo going onto a white page that is fine. On a dark or coloured background, put the logo on that colour before you convert.

Forms, email and chat

Application portals, email attachments and messaging apps often set size limits. Converting screenshots and scanned documents saved as PNG is one of the quickest ways to get under them.

Things better left as PNG

Logos, icons, pixel art and images with large flat colours look worse as JPG and rarely shrink as much. Keep those as PNG.

Not sure which setting to pick? Convert at 85, check the file size, and only go lower if you really need to.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert PNG to JPG and keep the file small?+

Upload the PNG, leave quality at the default 85 or lower it a little, and convert. A screenshot or photo saved as PNG is often a fraction of its size as JPG.

Which quality setting should I choose?+

85 suits most photos and web use. Go to 90 or higher for screenshots with small text, since low settings leave faint fuzz around letters. Drop toward 60 to 70 when you need the smallest possible file.

What happens to transparent areas?+

JPG cannot be transparent, so transparent parts of the PNG are filled with white. If your logo sits on a coloured page, place it on that colour first or keep the PNG.

Will I lose quality converting PNG to JPG?+

A little, because JPG is lossy. At 85 or above the difference is usually hard to see on photos. Graphics with flat colours and sharp edges show it sooner.

Why would I convert a screenshot to JPG?+

Screenshots saved as PNG are often large. Upload forms, email, chat apps and some websites work better with the smaller JPG.

Should I convert logos and icons to JPG?+

Usually not. Logos need sharp edges and often transparency, and JPG softens both. Keep logos as PNG.

Can I convert several PNGs at once?+

Yes. Select multiple files, convert them together and download the JPGs when finished. The same quality setting applies to the batch.

Is PNG to JPEG the same as PNG to JPG?+

Yes. JPG and JPEG are the same format, so the converter works for either name. Is it free? Yes, with no watermark added.

Can I convert PNG to JPG on my phone?+

Yes. Open this page in your phone’s browser, choose the image from your gallery or files, convert and save the JPG.

Is there a file size limit?+

Yes. Images larger than 20 MB are not accepted.
