PNG to JPG Converter

.png → .jpg

Convert Portable Network Graphics images to JPEGentirely in your browser. The source file is decoded with the browser’s native image pipeline, rendered to a canvas, and re-encoded in the target format. Nothing is uploaded — Convertitive cannot see, log, or store the image you drop in. Note that JPG doesn't support transparency; transparent pixels in the source will become solid white in the output. JPG is lossy, so you can trade visual fidelity for file size with the quality slider — 92% is the default and usually visually indistinguishable from the original.

Conversion happens entirely in your browser. Your file never leaves this page.

How to convert Portable Network Graphics to JPEG

  1. Drop or pick your image

    Drag a .png file onto the upload box, or click to choose one from your device. Up to 25 MB.

  2. Pick JPG as the target

    JPG is already selected. Adjust the quality slider if you want smaller files at the cost of some fidelity.

  3. Click Convert and download

    The browser renders your image onto a canvas and re-encodes it as JPG. The download button appears the moment the file is ready.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert PNG to JPG?
Drag your .png file into the upload box, leave JPG selected, then click Convert. The download button appears as soon as the new file is encoded.
Is the conversion lossy?
Yes. JPG is a lossy format — pixels are approximated to save space. You can raise the quality slider toward 100% to minimize the loss.
What happens to transparency?
PNG supports transparency but JPG does not. Transparent areas in the source become solid white in the output. If transparency matters, convert to PNG or WebP instead.
Is my file uploaded anywhere?
No. Everything runs in your browser — the file never leaves your device. Convertitive cannot see, log, or store it.
What's the maximum file size?
25 MB. Larger images won't open here because the browser keeps them fully in memory. For very large photos, downsample first.
Will my image be resized?
No. The output has the exact same pixel dimensions as the source. Only the encoding changes.
Why is the output sometimes larger than the input?
When you convert from a lossless format with simple content (flat color, lots of transparency) to a lossy one, the lossy encoder may add data to approximate the smooth gradients. For simple graphics, PNG or WebP-lossless is usually smaller than JPEG.
Which browser do I need?
Any browser released since 2020 supports all three formats. AVIF is not in the picker yet; we'll add it once Safari ships full encoder support.

About PNG and JPG

PNG .png

PNG is a lossless raster format with full transparency support. It's the right choice for screenshots, UI graphics, icons, line art, and any image that must be pixel-perfect. PNG files are typically larger than JPEG or WebP for photographs, smaller for graphics with large flat-colored regions.

JPG .jpg

JPEG (.jpg, .jpeg) is the dominant lossy photo format on the web. It excels at compressing natural images with smooth gradients but cannot represent transparency. Quality settings between 75 and 90 are the sweet spot for visually indistinguishable compression. Each save loses a small amount of fidelity — never edit a JPEG repeatedly.
