PNG to JPG converter
Turn a PNG into a JPG without uploading it anywhere.
PNG files are large because they store every pixel exactly. For a photograph that is usually wasted space — JPG can store the same picture at a fraction of the size and you will not see the difference. For a screenshot full of sharp text, the opposite is true, and JPG will make the edges look smudged.
A JPG cannot store transparency. If your PNG has transparent areas, they have to become a solid colour; the background setting decides which one, and white is the safe default.
Choose the quality before you convert rather than converting twice. Each JPG encode throws a little more away, and a second pass over the first cannot put any of it back.
Accepts: image/png, image/jpeg, image/webp, image/gif, image/bmp, image/avif

Questions
- Why did my transparent background turn white?
- JPG has no way to store transparency, so the transparent areas are filled with the background colour before encoding. Change that setting if you would rather they were another colour.
- What quality should I choose?
- Ninety is a good default for photographs. Below about seventy, blocky artefacts start to show around sharp edges.
