Does converting JFIF to WebP lose quality?

Publishing JFIF downloads as WebP on a website

If you collected images for a blog, shop or slideshow by saving them from the web on Windows, many may carry the .jfif extension. Website tools that reject .jfif will accept WebP, and WebP usually stores the same JPEG picture in fewer bytes, which helps pages load faster.

The JFIF is already lossy, so this is a second compression. Quality 75 to 85 is a reasonable starting range for photos; drop lower only after comparing the preview closely around edges and text. Lossless mode is rarely worth it here: it reproduces the JPEG's artifacts exactly and usually produces a bigger file than the JFIF.

Images saved from other sites may be large or belong to someone else, so make sure you may publish them. Resize to the width your layout shows before converting, which saves more than any quality setting. If a contact or an older app needs the image, a .jpg copy is more widely accepted.
