What is a PNG file?

PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is a lossless raster format built for graphics that need pixel-perfect edges and transparency — logos, screenshots, icons, diagrams. Every pixel survives the save; nothing is approximated the way JPEG does. The tradeoff is file size: a PNG of a photograph is usually much larger than the same photograph saved as JPEG or WebP.

What is a JPG file?

JPEG (or JPG) is the format most cameras and phones save photos in. It compresses by discarding detail the eye is least likely to notice, which keeps file sizes small at the cost of being lossy — save the same file repeatedly and quality degrades a little each time. It has no transparency channel.

How it works

  1. Drop your PNG file into the box above, or click to choose one.
  2. Your browser converts it to JPG instantly, using its own image engine — nothing is sent anywhere.
  3. Download the JPG file. That's it.

Questions.

Is my image uploaded to a server?

No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser using the Canvas API — your PNG file never leaves your device.

Will converting to JPG reduce quality?

A little, if you look closely — JPEG uses lossy compression, so some detail is discarded. At default quality settings it's rarely visible, and you get a meaningfully smaller file in return. If your PNG has transparency, that transparency is lost — JPEG has no alpha channel.

Is there a file size limit?

No limit is enforced by the tool itself — the practical ceiling is your browser's available memory, which handles typical photos and graphics easily.

Is this really free?

Yes — every format conversion on ByteRivet is free, with no account, watermark or daily limit.
