Frequently asked questions
Will the PNG look better than the JPG?
The PNG keeps the same resolution and removes JPG compression artifacts, but it cannot restore detail that was already lost in the original JPG.
Does this add transparency?
No. PNG supports transparency, but the converter cannot create transparency from a JPG image.
Are PNG files larger than JPG files?
Usually yes. PNG uses lossless compression, so file sizes are often larger than JPG.
Does this upload my image anywhere?
No. Everything runs inside your browser. The image never leaves your device.
