This free PNG to JPG converter works online without sending your pictures anywhere. A PNG keeps every pixel exactly, which makes a photograph or a phone screenshot far larger than it needs to be for an email, a form or a web page. Saving it as a JPG cuts the size sharply. Add your PNG files and each is converted straight away at 90% quality, ready to download.
How to Convert PNG to JPG
- Choose the PNG files. Drag them onto the upload box, or click it and select them.
- Let them convert. It starts by itself and takes about a second for an ordinary picture.
- Download the JPGs. Each result shows its old and new size. Save them singly or all together as a ZIP.
What Changes When a PNG Becomes a JPG
- Transparent areas turn white. We converted a PNG with a transparent background and every clear pixel came out white. A logo meant to sit on a coloured page will show a white box.
- The file gets smaller. Our three test files went from 111 KB to 21 KB, from 219 KB to 34 KB and from 38 KB to 22 KB.
- Fine edges soften slightly. JPG is built for photographs. Small text, line drawings and flat areas of colour can pick up faint marks.
- Width and height stay the same. Only the way the picture is stored changes.
- Extra data is dropped. Text notes stored inside the PNG are not carried into the JPG.
When to Convert and When Not To
| Your picture | Best choice |
|---|---|
| A photograph saved as PNG | Convert to JPG. Large saving, no visible change. |
| A screenshot for an email or a form | Convert to JPG if the form demands it or the file is too big. |
| A logo or icon with a transparent background | Keep the PNG, or use WebP. |
| A diagram, chart or page of text | Keep the PNG. It is often smaller than the JPG and sharper. |
| A picture you will edit again | Keep the PNG until the editing is finished. |

If the file has to stay transparent and still be small, the PNG to WebP Converter does both. To go the other way, use the JPG to PNG Converter, bearing in mind that it cannot bring back detail or a background the JPG no longer has.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this PNG to JPG converter free?
Yes. There is no charge, no account, no watermark and no daily limit. The conversion is done by your own browser, so it costs nothing to run.
What happens to the transparent background?
It turns white. JPG cannot store transparency. If you need to keep it, leave the file as a PNG or convert it to WebP.
How much smaller will the JPG be?
For a photograph, much smaller. In our tests a 111 KB PNG became 21 KB and a 219 KB PNG became 34 KB. A simple graphic with few colours may shrink very little.
Does converting PNG to JPG lose quality?
A little. The JPG is saved at 90% quality, which is hard to tell from the original on a photo. On small text and thin lines you may see slight smudging.
Is .jpg the same as .jpeg?
Yes. They are two spellings of one format. The files from this converter end in .jpg.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. They are read and converted inside the browser tab and never leave your device.
