What changes when you convert JPEG to PNG

  • JPEG has no transparency, so the picture looks the same; the extra transparency support in PNG simply stays unused.
  • JPEG is lossy and PNG is not. The conversion cannot bring back detail that JPEG already discarded, so the file can grow without looking better.
  • Expect a larger file with PNG; it trades size for quality or features.

When to choose PNG instead of JPEG

Choose PNG for logos, screenshots, icons and graphics with sharp edges or transparency. Its main limit: photos are usually much larger than the same photo as JPG, WEBP or AVIF.

Stay with JPEG if you need photos, social media, email and web pages where small file size matters.
