PNG is perfect for screenshots and graphics, but a photo saved as PNG can be many megabytes. When a form says "JPG only" or a file is too heavy to attach, this PNG to JPG converter creates a compact JPG copy. Only PNG files are accepted here, and JPEG is preselected. If the PNG has a transparent background you want to keep, choose PNG to WebP instead.

Good to know

When should you use JPG instead of PNG?

  • Photos

    Camera pictures and realistic images compress much better as JPG than as PNG.

  • File size limits

    Upload forms and email often cap attachment size. JPG lets you trade a little quality for a lot of space.

  • Wide compatibility

    Every device, browser and print service accepts JPG.

    Keep PNG for logos, text-heavy screenshots and anything that needs transparency or razor-sharp edges.

How it works

How do I get a PNG under 100 KB or 200 KB?

There is no automatic target-size button, but the live estimate makes it quick. Lower the Quality slider and watch Size; for most photos the file shrinks a lot between 100 and 75. If it is still too large, reduce Dimensions (px): a 1200-pixel-wide image is far lighter than a 4000-pixel one. Use Crop to remove empty margins.

Good to know

What happens to transparency when converting PNG to JPG?

JPG cannot store transparency. Transparent and semi-transparent areas of the PNG are filled with white in the JPG, so a logo on a transparent background ends up on a white square. To keep the background see-through, convert to WebP, or leave the image as PNG.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about PNG to JPG

Is this PNG to JPG converter free?

Yes. It is free, with no sign-up and no watermark.

Why is my JPG background white?

JPG has no transparency, so transparent PNG pixels are filled with white.

Will converting PNG to JPG reduce quality?

JPG is lossy. At a quality of 85 to 100 the difference is hard to see on photos; text and sharp lines show it first.

How do I compress a PNG to a specific size in KB?

Lower the quality and the dimensions while watching the size estimate, then download when it fits.

Can I convert screenshots?

Yes, but text stays sharper in PNG. Use a high quality value if you need a JPG.

Does it work on iPhone and Android?

Yes. Open the page in your mobile browser and choose the PNG from your files or photos.
