How to convert PNG to JPG in three steps
To convert PNG to JPG, add your pictures to the box above and press Convert to JPG. Each PNG becomes a JPG in a moment, usually several times smaller, ready to download one by one or together as a ZIP. Transparent areas are filled with white, or any colour you choose, so they never turn black.
Everything happens in your browser, so your pictures are not uploaded. Set the quality, keep each file under a size such as 100 or 200 KB, resize, add a DPI for printing or turn the pictures black and white, all in the same step.
- 1
Add your pictures
Choose files or a whole folder, drop them on the box or paste a screenshot with Ctrl+V. PNG, WebP, HEIC, AVIF, BMP, GIF, TIFF and SVG all work.
- 2
Choose the options
Pick the background for transparent areas, the quality, and if you need it a maximum size in KB.
- 3
Convert and download
Press Convert to JPG, compare before and after, then save each JPG or download them all as a ZIP.
Your choices are remembered on this device, so the next batch converts the same way.
A PNG to JPG converter that gets the details right
PNG is perfect for graphics and screenshots but makes photos heavy, and many forms, email systems and older apps only accept JPG. This converter turns PNG files into clean, compact JPGs and handles the two things that usually go wrong: transparent areas that come out black, and files that are still too large for an upload limit.
You choose the background colour, the quality and, if you like, a maximum file size; the converter finds the best quality that fits. Resizing, print resolution and grayscale are built in, and hundreds of pictures can be converted at once without installing anything.
When to use JPG and when to keep PNG
Convert to JPG when a picture is a photo or looks like one, when the file needs to be small for email, messages or a website, or when a form, printer or app only accepts JPG. Photos saved as PNG are often five to ten times larger than the same photo as a high quality JPG.
Keep PNG for logos, icons, screenshots with small text and anything that needs a transparent background, because JPG blurs sharp edges slightly and cannot be see-through. JPG to PNG goes the other way when you need that.
PNG and JPG compared
The two formats side by side, to help you decide.
| PNG | JPG | |
|---|---|---|
| Compression | Lossless: every pixel kept | Lossy: smaller, slight loss |
| Transparency | Yes | No: filled with a colour |
| Best for | Logos, icons, screenshots | Photos and photo-like pictures |
| Typical photo size | 2 to 10 MB | 200 KB to 1 MB |
| Accepted by forms and email | Often | Almost always |
| Sharp text and lines | Perfect | Slightly soft at lower quality |
PNG to JPG white background, never black
JPG cannot store transparency. When a transparent PNG is converted carelessly, the see-through parts become black, which ruins logos and product cut-outs. A PNG to JPG white background conversion here fills those areas with clean white instead, the way most shops, documents and slides expect.
Choose Black or any other colour under Background for transparent areas to match a website or a brand colour. Soft edges and shadows are blended onto the chosen colour, so there is no dark halo around the subject.
Step by step: product photos on white
Marketplaces and online shops usually want square product photos on pure white. Add the cut-out PNGs, keep Background for transparent areas on White, choose Exact size with 1000 by 1000 or 2000 by 2000 pixels and Fit inside, and convert. Every product sits centred on white, at the same size, with no grey or black edges.
If the products still have a background, cut them out first with Remove Background, download the transparent PNGs, and bring them here. Quality 90% keeps fine textures like fabric and print sharp while the files stay small enough for any shop.
PNG to JPG high quality: choosing the setting
JPG uses lossy compression, so quality is a choice. A PNG to JPG high quality conversion at 92%, the default, looks identical to the PNG for photos while being much smaller. Between 75 and 90% the difference is very hard to see; below about 70% fine detail and flat colours start to show soft blocks.
Text and sharp lines suffer first in JPG. For screenshots with small writing, keep the quality at 90% or more, or stay with PNG. The before and after slider shows exactly how each picture looks before you download it.
How quality changes the file size
A typical 12 megapixel photo saved as PNG is about 18 MB. Here is roughly what the same photo weighs as a JPG at each quality; screenshots and simple graphics shrink less.
| Quality | Typical size | Good for |
|---|---|---|
| 100% | About 6 MB | Archiving when every last detail matters |
| 92% (default) | About 2.5 MB | Photos you want to keep, printing |
| 85% | About 1.6 MB | Sharing, social media, galleries |
| 75% | About 1.1 MB | Websites, email, chat |
| 60% | About 0.8 MB | Thumbnails and previews only |
Reduce PNG file size and keep it under a limit in KB
Online forms, exam portals and email often limit attachments, and PNG photos and screenshots are frequently far too big. To reduce PNG file size dramatically, convert to JPG: a 3 MB PNG photo typically becomes 300 to 600 KB at high quality without visible change.
When there is a strict limit, choose Keep under a size and type the number of KB, or pick 100 KB, 200 KB, 500 KB or 1 MB. Each picture gets the highest quality that still fits, found automatically. If even the lowest sensible quality is too large, the page says so; choose a smaller size under Size, because fewer pixels shrink a file much more than lower quality.
Common upload limits and the settings to use
Upload limits vary from site to site, so always check the exact rule. These are the ranges people meet most often, with the settings that work best for each.
| Where | Typical limit | Settings |
|---|---|---|
| Application and exam photos | 20 to 200 KB | Exact size as asked, then Keep under a size |
| Signatures | 10 to 50 KB | Exact size, Grayscale, Keep under a size |
| Job portals and documents | 500 KB to 2 MB | Quality 85%, Longest side 2000 |
| Online store product photos | 1 to 10 MB | White background, Exact size, quality 90% |
| Email attachments | 10 to 25 MB in total | Longest side 1920, quality 85% |
| Website pictures | Under 200 KB is ideal | Longest side 1600, Keep under 200 KB |
Step by step: a photo for an application form
Application forms often ask for a photo of a given size in pixels and under a certain number of KB. Add the photo, choose Exact size and type the width and height the form asks for, with Fill and crop so the picture is not squashed. Then choose Keep under a size and type the limit, for example 100.
Press Convert to JPG and check the result: it shows the final size and the quality used. If the page says the limit could not be reached, make the picture smaller in pixels or switch to Grayscale if the form allows it, and convert again. Your settings stay in place, so changing one thing is quick.
PNG to JPEG is the same conversion
JPG and JPEG are the same format with two spellings, so a PNG to JPEG conversion is exactly the same thing. The files are saved with the .jpg extension, which every app, website and device recognises.
If a form insists on .jpeg, simply rename the downloaded file; nothing inside it needs to change. The same JPG also works wherever JFIF or JPE is mentioned.
Image to JPG from WebP, HEIC, AVIF, SVG and more
Any picture can be turned into a JPG here, not only PNG. Image to JPG conversion works for WebP and AVIF pictures saved from websites, iPhone HEIC photos, BMP files, GIF frames, SVG drawings, and TIFF and ICO files, which are opened on our server and labelled when that happens.
Mixed folders convert in one batch, and transparent parts of WebP, GIF and SVG files get the same background colour as PNGs.
Photo to JPG on iPhone and Android
On an iPhone or Android phone, open this page in Safari or Chrome and tap Select images. A photo to JPG conversion on a phone is handy when an app or website refuses HEIC or PNG files: iPhone HEIC photos work without changing any setting.
When the JPG files are ready, tap Download to save them to your phone and share them anywhere. Phones have less memory than computers, so very large pictures are scaled to a size the phone can handle, and the page tells you when that happens.
Screenshot to JPG for email and forms
Windows, Mac and many phones save screenshots as PNG. A screenshot to JPG conversion makes them small enough to email or upload, and some ticketing systems and forms only accept JPG. Paste the screenshot straight in with Ctrl+V; there is no need to save it as a file first.
For screenshots with lots of small text, keep the quality at 90% or more so letters stay crisp, or choose Grayscale under More options for documents, which saves even more space.
Faster websites with lighter pictures
Heavy pictures are the most common reason a website is slow, and speed affects both visitors and search rankings. For photos on a website, a JPG with the longest side of 1600 to 2000 pixels at 75 to 85% quality is usually between 150 and 400 KB and looks sharp on large screens.
Choose Longest side so big pictures shrink while small ones stay as they are, and set a size limit if your site or theme has one. Keep logos and icons as PNG or SVG, and use JPG for photos, banners and backgrounds.
Pictures for email and chat
Most email services limit attachments to about 20 or 25 MB in total, and messages with big pictures are slow to send and open. Converting photos to JPG with a longest side of 1920 pixels makes each one a few hundred KB, so dozens fit in one email.
Chat apps compress pictures again when you send them. Sending a good JPG of a sensible size gives the app less to do, so the picture usually arrives looking better. Use Download all to get one ZIP that is easy to attach.
Save PNG as JPG without Paint or Preview
Every computer can save PNG as JPG for a single picture. On Windows, open it in Paint, choose File, Save as, then JPEG picture; transparent areas usually turn white, but there is no quality setting. On a Mac, open it in Preview, choose File, Export, pick JPEG and use the quality slider.
Those tools work one picture at a time and cannot keep each file under a size, resize to exact dimensions or set a background colour. This page does all of that for hundreds of pictures at once, on any device.
Hundreds of pictures at once
Add up to 500 pictures at once, or a whole folder with Add a whole folder. They are converted several at a time using the spare cores of your processor, so a hundred pictures usually take well under a minute, and the same settings apply to all of them.
Download all puts every JPG in one ZIP, keeping the folder structure when you added a folder. File names stay the same with the .jpg extension, or get -converted added if you prefer.
Resize while you convert
Resize while converting to make files smaller still and to meet size rules. Longest side scales large pictures down to, for example, 1920 pixels without enlarging small ones. Percentage scales every picture by the same amount. Exact size makes every picture the same width and height, with fit inside, fill and crop, or stretch.
When a picture is fitted inside an exact size, the empty space around it is filled with the background colour you chose, which suits product photos on white.
DPI for printing
DPI tells printing and design software how large to print a picture; it does not change the pixels. Choose 300 DPI for print shops, photo labs and documents, or 72 or 96 for screens. The value is written into the JPG header, so Word, Photoshop and print services read it correctly.
To print sharply at a given size, a picture needs enough pixels: a 4 by 6 inch photo needs about 1200 by 1800 pixels at 300 DPI.
Colours and bit depth
Pictures are converted in sRGB, the standard colour space for screens, phones and the web, so the JPG looks the same in every browser and app. Colours stay true to the original; only the transparency is replaced by the colour you choose.
PNG files with 16 bits per channel are reduced to the 8 bits that JPG supports, which is invisible for normal viewing. If you need more than that for professional editing, keep the original PNG or TIFF next to the JPG.
Works on every device and browser
The converter runs in any modern browser: Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari, Opera and Brave, on Windows, macOS, Linux, ChromeOS, Android and iPhone or iPad. There is nothing to install, no account to create and no extension to add, so it also works on school and office computers where installing software is blocked.
A faster computer converts large batches more quickly, because the work is shared across the cores of your processor. On older laptops and phones it simply takes a little longer; the result is exactly the same picture either way.
Animated GIF, APNG and WebP files
JPG holds one still picture. When you convert an animated GIF, animated PNG or animated WebP, the first frame is saved as the JPG. Transparent parts of that frame are filled with the background colour you chose, the same as for any other picture.
If you need every frame as a separate picture, or the animation kept, keep the original file instead. For PDF files, use PDF to JPG, which turns every page into its own picture at the resolution you choose.

Is it safe? Your pictures are not uploaded
Your pictures are not uploaded. Reading, converting, resizing and zipping all happen in your browser, on your own device, using code that runs in this page. Only TIFF and ICO files, which browsers cannot open, are sent to our image server to be read, and they are deleted straight away.
Converting also drops hidden data such as camera details and location from photos, so the JPG you share reveals less about you.
How it works
Each picture is opened by your browser, turned upright and drawn onto an invisible canvas filled first with the background colour you chose, so transparent areas take that colour and soft edges blend into it. Large reductions are done in smooth steps to keep the picture sharp.
The canvas is then saved as a JPG at the chosen quality. With a size limit, the picture is saved at several qualities in a binary search, so the highest quality that fits is found in about six tries. The work runs in background workers so the page stays responsive even with hundreds of pictures.

| Quality control | Slider, 30 to 100% | Sometimes |
| Keep under a size in KB | Yes, best quality that fits | Rarely |
| Resize and exact sizes | Yes | Sometimes |
| DPI for printing | Yes | Rarely |
| Pictures at once | Up to 500, or a folder | Often 20 or fewer |
| HEIC, WebP, AVIF, SVG, TIFF | Yes | Often PNG only |
Common problems and fixes
Transparent areas turned black elsewhere
Here they are filled with the colour you choose; white is the default.
Small text looks blurry
Raise the quality to 90% or more, or keep screenshots as PNG.
The file is still too big
Choose Keep under a size, or a smaller size under Size.
A dark edge around a logo
Pick a background colour close to where the logo will be used.
The picture is sideways
Orientation is applied automatically; rotate the original if it was saved sideways.
The browser warns about anti-fingerprinting
Some privacy settings block reading pictures. Allow this site to convert.
Tips for the best JPG
Keep quality at 85 to 92% for photos you care about; drop to 75% for web thumbnails.
Resize before squeezing quality: halving the width and height saves about three quarters of the size.
Use white backgrounds for marketplaces and documents, and match the page colour for websites.
Keep the original PNG if you might edit the picture again, because JPG loses a little each time it is saved.
For signatures and logos that need transparency, convert to PNG instead.
Picture words explained
Lossy compression
Throws away detail the eye barely notices to make files much smaller.
Quality
How much detail JPG keeps, from 1 to 100%; 85 to 92% looks identical for most photos.
Transparency
See-through areas in PNG; JPG fills them with a solid colour.
DPI
Dots per inch: tells print software how big to print a picture.
KB and MB
File size: 1 MB is about 1,000 KB. Upload limits here use 1 KB = 1,000 bytes, the strict reading.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert PNG to JPG?
Add your pictures to the box on this page and press Convert to JPG. Then download each JPG or all of them as a ZIP. It is free and nothing is uploaded.
Which is the best PNG to JPG converter?
One that fills transparent areas with white instead of black, lets you set quality and a size limit, and works without uploading your pictures. This one does all of that, free.
How do I convert PNG to JPEG?
Exactly the same way: JPG and JPEG are one format. Add the PNG and press Convert to JPG.
Is PNG to JPG high quality?
Yes at 85 to 92% quality, which looks identical for photos. The default is 92%; raise it for screenshots with small text.
Can I get a PNG to JPG white background instead of black?
Yes. Keep Background for transparent areas on White and convert. Choose Black or another colour if you prefer.
Can I convert any image to JPG?
Yes: WebP, AVIF, HEIC, BMP, GIF, SVG, TIFF and ICO as well as PNG. TIFF and ICO are opened on our server; everything else stays in your browser.
How do I convert a photo to JPG on my phone?
Open this page in Safari or Chrome, tap Select images, choose the photos and tap Convert to JPG. Then download them.
How do I convert a screenshot to JPG?
Paste it with Ctrl+V or add the file, and press Convert to JPG. Keep the quality at 90% or more for small text.
How do I save PNG as JPG without Paint or Photoshop?
Use this page in any browser: add the picture, choose the background and quality, and download the JPG.
How can I reduce PNG file size?
Converting a photo-like PNG to JPG usually makes it five to ten times smaller. Use Keep under a size for an exact limit.
Can I keep the JPG under 100 KB?
Yes. Choose Keep under a size and 100 KB; each picture gets the highest quality that fits, and resizing helps for very small limits.
Why do transparent PNGs turn black in other converters?
JPG has no transparency, and many tools fill those areas with black. Here they are filled with white or the colour you choose.
Does converting lose quality?
A little, because JPG is lossy, but at 85 to 92% the difference is invisible for photos. Screenshots with small text show it first, so use a higher quality for them.
Why is my JPG bigger than the PNG?
Simple graphics with few colours, like logos or flat diagrams, can be smaller as PNG. JPG wins for photos and pictures with many colours. Keep simple graphics as PNG.
Can I turn the JPG back into a PNG?
Yes, with JPG to PNG, but the detail lost by JPG compression does not come back and transparency has to be made again. Keep your original PNG if you may need it.
Is location and camera data kept?
No. Converting drops hidden data such as camera details and GPS location, so the JPG you share reveals less about you.
Can I resize while converting?
Yes. Choose Longest side, Percentage or Exact size, with fit, fill or stretch.
Can I set the DPI?
Yes. Choose 72, 96, 150 or 300 DPI under More options; it is written into the JPG.
Are my pictures uploaded?
No. Conversion happens in your browser. Only TIFF and ICO files are opened on our server and deleted straight away.
Can I convert many pictures at once?
Yes. Add up to 500 pictures or a whole folder and download them as one ZIP.
Is there a limit?
Up to 500 pictures of 100 MB each per batch, as often as you like, with no sign-up and no watermark.
