//how_it_works
How It Works
Drop your PNG files
Drag and drop or select PNG images. Supports all PNG variants — 8-bit, 24-bit, 32-bit with transparency, interlaced, and animated.
Canvas rendering
Each PNG is drawn onto an HTML Canvas element. Transparent areas are composited onto a white background since JPG doesn't support alpha channels.
JPG compression at 92%
The Canvas exports the image as JPG using DCT compression at 92% quality. This typically reduces file size by 50-80% compared to the PNG source.
Download smaller files
Your JPG files are ready. Download one by one or all at once. Great for reducing storage and speeding up uploads.
// under the hood
PNG uses lossless DEFLATE compression, while JPG uses lossy DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform) compression. Our converter renders the PNG on a Canvas element and exports via toBlob at 92% JPG quality. Transparent areas are composited onto a white background before export, since JPG doesn't support alpha channels.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Why convert PNG to JPG?
- JPG files are significantly smaller than PNGs for photographs and complex images. Converting to JPG can reduce file size by 50-80%, making images faster to upload, share, and load on websites.
- Will I lose quality converting PNG to JPG?
- We use a 92% quality setting which preserves virtually all visible detail. For photos and complex images, the difference is imperceptible. Note that JPG doesn't support transparency — transparent areas will become white.
- What happens to transparent backgrounds?
- JPG doesn't support transparency. Any transparent areas in your PNG will be converted to a white background. If you need to keep transparency, consider converting to WebP instead.
- Is there a file size limit?
- There's no hard limit since all processing happens in your browser. Files under 30MB convert quickly. Larger files may take a bit longer depending on your device.
- Are my files uploaded anywhere?
- No. All conversion happens locally in your browser using client-side technology. Your files never leave your device — we have zero access to them.
