What to know before converting PNG to JPG

  • Smaller files, some loss: JPG is lossy: it saves space by simplifying detail. For photos this is rarely noticeable; for sharp text, line art or logos, edges can look slightly soft.
  • Transparency becomes a colour: Transparent and semi-transparent pixels are placed on the background you choose, white by default. They will not stay transparent in the JPG.
  • Same dimensions: The JPG has exactly the same width and height as your PNG.

Frequently asked questions

What happens to transparent pixels?

JPG has no transparency, so transparent areas are filled with the background colour you choose: white, black or any custom colour. Semi-transparent edges are blended onto that colour.

Why is the JPG so much smaller?

PNG stores every pixel exactly, while JPG discards detail that is hard to see. For photos this usually saves a lot of space.

Will text in my screenshot stay sharp?

Text can get slightly soft edges in JPG. Use a higher quality setting, or keep screenshots with small text as PNG or WebP.
