JPG, PNG, WebP · up to 30 images · you can also paste with Ctrl+VPre-set for you: output format JPEG at 90% quality, which looks identical to the PNG for photos. Lower the quality for smaller files, or set a target size if a form has a KB limit. Every option is in the full Image Compressor.
When to convert PNG to JPG
PNG is perfect for logos, icons and screenshots, but it is a poor choice for photographs: it stores every pixel exactly, so a phone photo or a scanned document saved as PNG can easily be 5–15MB. JPG is designed for photos and throws away detail your eyes cannot see, which is why the same picture as a JPG is usually a fraction of the size.
Convert to JPG when a website, job portal or email only accepts JPG, when a photo was exported as PNG by mistake, or when you need to share a large batch quickly.
How to convert PNG to JPG
- Drop your PNG files into the box above, or paste an image with Ctrl+V.
- The output format is already JPEG at 90% quality. Move the slider to 75–80% if you want even smaller files.
- Press Compress images. Each file is converted with the MozJPEG encoder.
- Download the JPGs one by one or as a ZIP.
What happens to transparency?
JPG has no transparency. Transparent and semi-transparent areas of your PNG are placed on a white background during conversion, which is what most documents and forms expect. If you need to keep transparency, convert to WebP instead, or keep the PNG and compress it losslessly.

Frequently asked questions
Will converting PNG to JPG lower the quality?
Slightly, but at 90% quality the difference is invisible in photos. Text and sharp lines can show faint artefacts, so keep screenshots as PNG.
Can I convert JPG back to PNG?
You can save a JPG as PNG with the Image Resizer or Cropper by choosing PNG as the output, but it will not restore detail that JPG compression removed, and the file will be larger.
Is there a limit on how many files I can convert?
You can convert up to 30 images per batch, and as many batches as you like. Everything runs on your device.
