Shrink heavy exports
A photo saved as PNG from an editor or phone can be several megabytes. As a JPG it is often a fraction of that.

This PNG to JPG converter turns PNG screenshots, exports and downloads into JPG files that are smaller and accepted almost everywhere. The conversion runs in your browser with the canvas API, so your PNGs are not uploaded, and there is no account, watermark or daily cap.
JPG is the right choice when a site or form rejects PNG, or when a photo-like PNG is simply too heavy to email. If you need to keep a transparent background, convert to WebP instead, and if the file is still too big afterwards, run it through Compress Image or Resize Image.
Click Add Files or drop your PNGs on the box. Each file is listed with its original size so you can compare later.
JPG is already selected. Pick JPEG in the To menu if you prefer the .jpeg extension; the image data is the same.
Press Convert. Each file gets its own Download button and keeps its original name with a .jpg ending.
A photo saved as PNG from an editor or phone can be several megabytes. As a JPG it is often a fraction of that.
Job portals, visa forms, marketplaces and older CMSs often accept only JPG. Convert once and the upload goes through.
Smaller JPGs attach faster and stay under mailbox size limits when you send a batch of pictures.
Turn PNG product shots on white into JPGs for listings. Transparent edges become clean white.
Large PNG photos bloat Word files and decks. JPG copies keep documents small and quick to open.
Most print services and photo kiosks expect JPG. Convert before you upload an order.
PNG is lossless: it stores every pixel exactly, which is ideal for logos, UI screenshots and graphics with flat colour, but wasteful for photographs. JPG uses lossy compression tuned for photos, so a photographic PNG usually becomes several times smaller with no visible change.
Convert when the image is a photo or photo-like (renders, scans of pictures, social media downloads) and you need a smaller or more compatible file. Think twice when the PNG is a screenshot with text, a chart, or line art. JPG blurs sharp edges slightly and can leave faint ringing around letters, and the file may not even get much smaller. For those, keep the PNG or try PNG to WebP, which handles both photos and graphics well.
Also remember that JPG is a one-way trip. Converting the JPG back with JPG to PNG will not restore detail that compression removed, so keep your original PNG if you might edit it again.
JPG has no alpha channel, so it cannot store transparent pixels. Before drawing your image, the converter fills the canvas with white, and every transparent or semi-transparent area blends into that white. A logo on a transparent background becomes a logo on a white square; soft shadows fade into white rather than black.
If you need a different background colour, or no background at all, this is the wrong direction. Keep the PNG, or cut the subject out cleanly with the Background Remover and save as PNG or WebP.
Quality is fixed at about 90 out of 100. That is a high setting: photos look the same as the original at normal viewing size, while file size still drops a lot. There is no quality slider on this page. If you need a specific target size (for example under 200 KB for a form), convert first, then use Compress Image. Converted files do not keep EXIF metadata such as camera details or GPS location, which is usually a plus when sharing.
Most oversized PNGs are not made on purpose. Screenshots on Mac, Windows and many phones are saved as PNG by default, so a screenshot of a photo or video frame ends up several megabytes. Design tools such as Canva and Figma often export PNG unless you choose otherwise, and many AI image generators hand back PNG files too. All of these are good candidates for JPG.
