How to convert a PNG file to JPG and choose what replaces transparency

This PNG to JPG converter turns a PNG screenshot, graphic or photo into a JPG for email, uploads and sharing, so you can change PNG to JPG online in a minute. You set the JPG quality, and you pick the color that fills any transparent area, because a JPG cannot be see-through. Drop in the PNG, convert it and download the result. It works in a phone or desktop browser with nothing to install.

Convert a PNG file to JPG step by step

Changing a PNG image to JPG is one conversion: the PNG goes in and a JPG comes out. The page opens PNG files only, so a file of another type is refused with a message. Once your PNG image is loaded you see it in the preview. After you select Convert to JPG, the preview switches to the new file and a badge in the corner shows its size in KB, so you can judge the saving before you download.

  1. Upload your PNG file.
  2. Set JPG quality; 90 is the default.
  3. If the PNG has transparent areas, choose a Background fill color.
  4. Select Convert to JPG, then See result and Download.

What happens to a transparent PNG background

A JPG stores no transparency, so every transparent pixel is filled with white unless you choose another Background fill color. Pick one that matches the page or document where the JPG will sit, and use Reset to return to white. Soft edges and shadows are blended onto that color. If the background has to stay see-through, save the PNG as WebP or keep it as a PNG.

How to shrink PNG file size for screenshots and photos

Photos and screenshots are usually much smaller as JPG than as PNG, so when transparency is not needed the page works as a PNG size reducer for email or an upload form. From 90 upward the converter keeps full color detail, which protects colored text and thin lines, and 70 to 80 is enough for most photos. Flat logos and line art gain less and can show fuzzy edges, so keep those as PNG. For an exact KB limit, compress the JPG to a target size.

Convert screenshot to JPG for email, chats and forms

Screenshots are saved as PNG on most phones and computers, so they open here directly. A JPG screenshot is usually much smaller, which helps when a chat app, an email or an upload form limits file size. Keep the quality at 90 or higher when the capture holds small text, and pick a Background fill color if it has transparent corners. A screenshot of a web page or an app screen converts the same way as any other PNG.

Convert many PNG images to JPG in one go

Folders of screenshots or exports go through Batch with one quality and one fill color for every file. Batch is a Premium feature, and the JPG files come back as a single ZIP. Without it, convert each PNG on its own. The first file shows in the preview while you set the options for the whole set.

Convert pic to JPEG when your file is not a PNG

iPhone photos are normally HEIC, so turn HEIC photos into JPG on their own page. Pictures saved from websites are often WebP, which you can convert to JPG on its own page. For any other pic to JPG conversion, the image converter accepts almost any format and can output JPG, so it covers anything this page refuses.

Before you convert

  • Set the Background fill color first. Changing it later means converting again.
  • Keep the PNG as your master copy, because a JPG cannot get its transparency back.
  • Aim for quality 90 or more when the image contains small text.

Transparent areas are filled with white or your chosen color, so to shrink a logo without losing its see-through edges, save the PNG as WebP instead. To meet a strict upload limit, get the JPG under a size cap in KB, and for the reverse job, turn a JPG into an editable PNG.
