JPG to PNG

Converts one JPG/JPEG image to PNG by decoding it in your browser and re-encoding the pixels as PNG. The result is a lossless container for the pixels the JPG already contains; it does not restore detail that JPEG compression removed.

Features

  • Accepts .jpg and .jpeg files only, one file per conversion
  • Output is PNG, which is lossless and can carry an alpha channel

  • No settings to adjust: the conversion is a straight decode and PNG re-encode
  • Runs in your browser using the canvas API; the file is not uploaded for the conversion

FAQ

Will converting a JPG to PNG improve the quality?

No. The JPG has already thrown away some detail, and PNG cannot bring it back. The PNG will hold exactly what the JPG showed, including any blocky compression artifacts, so it is usually a larger file with the same look.

Why is my PNG bigger than the JPG?

PNG stores pixels without discarding data, while JPEG discards detail to save space. For photographs this typically makes the PNG considerably larger. If size matters, keep the JPG or use the JPG to WebP converter instead.

Does the PNG get a transparent background?

No. JPG has no transparency, so every pixel is fully opaque in the PNG too. The PNG format could hold transparency, but this tool does not remove or add any background.

Can I convert several JPG files at once?

Not on this page: it accepts one file at a time. For a batch, use the Bulk Convert Images tool.
