How do I convert XCF to JPG?

Upload your XCF file above. It is converted to JPG automatically (change the output format or quality in the Settings tab if you need to), then click Download. There is nothing to install.

Does converting XCF to JPG lose quality?

JPG is lossy, so some fine detail is discarded to make the file smaller. Raise the quality in Settings for a closer copy.

Will the JPG keep the transparent background?

No. JPG can’t store transparency, so transparent areas are filled with the background colour you pick in Settings (white by default).

XCF or JPG: which should I use?

Use XCF for editing in GIMP with layers, channels and paths intact. Use JPG for photos you share, email, print or upload. Keep in mind the main drawback of JPG: no transparency, and every re-save loses a little more detail.

XCF is GIMP’s working format: it keeps layers, channels, paths and selections so an image stays editable. Most other apps can’t open it.

Can I convert XCF to JPG without GIMP?

Yes. The XCF file is opened on our servers, so you don’t need GIMP or any other software installed. Upload the file, then download the finished JPG.

Is the XCF to JPG converter free?

Yes. Convert, preview and download a single result without creating an account. Premium adds batch conversion (many files into one ZIP) and larger uploads.
