Need to shrink a PNG? Converting to JPG is one of the fastest ways to dramatically reduce file size. A typical photo saved as PNG might be 5 MB; the same photo as JPG at quality 90% is often under 500 KB — a 90% size reduction with no visible difference.

This tool converts PNG to JPG in your browser. Drop one file or hundreds, adjust the quality slider to balance size against visual fidelity, and download. Nothing is uploaded.

How PNG to JPG conversion works

01
Drop your PNG files
Drag, paste, or click to browse. We accept PNG files up to 100 MB each.
02
Set quality and convert
Use the slider to balance file size against quality. Higher quality = larger file. 80-90% is usually invisible.
03
Download
Get individual files or a ZIP of everything. Original filenames preserved, just with .jpg.

When to convert PNG to JPG

PNG is wonderful for graphics with sharp edges, transparency, and lossless quality. But for photographic content, it's often the wrong choice — JPG produces files that are dramatically smaller with no perceptible quality difference.

Convert PNG to JPG when:

  • The image is a photograph. Photos compress beautifully in JPG. The lossy compression algorithm was literally designed for photographic content.
  • File size matters. Email attachments, web pages, storage limits — JPG can be 5–20× smaller than PNG for the same photo.
  • You don't need transparency. JPG doesn't support transparent backgrounds. If your PNG has transparency, it'll become a solid color (white by default) in the JPG.
  • The image is being shared widely. JPG is the most universally supported format. Every platform, every email client, every device can open it.

About transparency

JPG cannot store transparent pixels. If your PNG has transparency (a transparent background, anti-aliased edges, etc.), the converter will fill the transparent areas with a solid color — white by default.

If transparency matters, you have two better options:

  • Keep PNG if file size isn't critical.
  • Convert to WebP instead — it supports both lossy compression and transparency, often beating both JPG and PNG.

Choosing the right quality

The quality slider controls how aggressively JPG compresses your image. Here's a rough guide:

  • 95–100%: archive quality, minimal compression. Files are larger but virtually indistinguishable from the original.
  • 85–90%: the sweet spot for most web use. Substantial size reduction with no visible loss.
  • 70–80%: aggressive compression, often suitable for thumbnails and previews. Small artifacts may become visible on careful inspection.
  • Below 70%: visible quality loss. Use only when bandwidth is critically constrained.

For most users, 85% is the right default — it produces files roughly 10× smaller than 100% quality with no visible difference.

Your PNGs stay private

Other PNG-to-JPG tools require uploading your files. We don't. All processing happens in your browser via the Canvas API. Open your network tab and verify — no images are transmitted.

This matters more than people realize. Screenshots of internal tools, design comps, personal photos, medical images, document scans — these often shouldn't be uploaded to a third-party service. With us, you don't have to worry about it.

Common questions

Things people actually ask.

No. JPG doesn't support transparency. Transparent areas of your PNG will be filled with a solid color (white) in the JPG output. If transparency matters, convert to WebP instead.

For photos, JPG is typically 5–20× smaller than PNG at quality 85%. For graphics with flat colors and sharp edges, the difference is smaller (sometimes JPG is even bigger). The savings are visible in the size summary after conversion.

85–90% works for almost every web use case — substantial size reduction with no visible difference. Use 95–100% for archives, 70–80% for thumbnails. Avoid below 70% unless absolutely necessary.

Yes. Drop them all in and download the batch as a ZIP. The only practical limit is your computer's memory.

Never. No watermarks, no signatures, no tracking pixels. The output is exactly what your image looks like, just in JPG format.
