PNG to JPG

Converts one PNG image to JPG by drawing it on a canvas in your browser and exporting it as JPEG at a fixed quality of 0.92. Transparent areas are flattened onto white when the output is JPEG, because JPEG cannot store transparency.

FAQ

What happens to transparent areas when I convert PNG to JPG?

JPEG has no alpha channel, so transparency has to be replaced by a solid colour. Transparent areas are flattened onto white when the output is JPEG, because JPEG cannot store transparency. The hint text on the page mentions a white background, but the conversion code does not apply one. If you need white, place your image on a white background first, or use the Image Compressor with JPEG output, which does flatten transparency onto white.

Can I choose the JPG quality?

No. The page has no quality control; it exports at a fixed 0.92 setting. To choose a quality level for JPEG output, use the Image Compressor.

Is the conversion reversible?

No. JPEG is lossy, so some detail is discarded when the JPG is written. Converting that JPG back to PNG will not recover it. Keep your original PNG if you may need it.

Is PNG to JPG a good idea for screenshots and logos?

Often not. JPEG compression tends to smear sharp text and flat colour edges, and it cannot keep transparency. It suits photographs better than logos, line art or screenshots.
