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