Image Format Converter
Convert between JPEG, PNG, and WebP, with explicit transparency-to-background handling for JPEG and real output-format verification.
Converts between JPEG, PNG, and WebP only — not AVIF, GIF, SVG, HEIC, TIFF, or BMP. Every conversion checks the actual output your browser produced, not just the format you requested — if a browser can't encode to a given format, it's told about explicitly rather than silently handing back the wrong file type. Re-encoding strips EXIF, GPS, and color-profile metadata from the result.
Your image is processed locally in your browser — it is never uploaded anywhere.
Convert between JPEG, PNG, and WebP. Since JPEG can't store transparency, converting a transparent PNG or WebP to JPEG lets you pick an explicit background color to fill in — never an unpredictable default.
Every conversion verifies the actual file type your browser produced, not just the format you asked for — some browsers can silently fall back to a different format than requested, and this tool reports that explicitly instead of handing you a mislabeled file.
How to use the Image Format Converter
- Click the "Image (JPEG, PNG, or WebP)" file picker and choose an image; its format, pixel size, and file size appear.
- Pick an output in "Convert to" (your current format is not listed; WebP is preselected, or JPEG if the source is WebP).
- For JPEG or WebP, set the Quality slider (90% by default); for a transparent source going to JPEG, choose a Background color.
- Click Convert, check the preview and new file size, then click Download.
Example: Transparent PNG logo to JPEG
Load logo transparent.png, choose JPEG in Convert to, and pick a white Background color. After Convert, the transparent areas are filled with white and the result line shows the new format and file size. Download saves it as logo-transparent-converted.jpg.
Questions about the Image Format Converter
- Why was my file rejected?
- Only JPEG, PNG, and WebP files are accepted, up to 25 MiB and 25 megapixels. A GIF shows "Unsupported file type", and an 8000 × 6000 photo is refused as 48.0 MP over the 25 MP limit.
- Is the image resized during conversion?
- No. The output keeps the original pixel dimensions; use the Image Resizer if you need a different size.
- Will converting to WebP or JPEG always make the file smaller?
- Not always. The result shows the real output size, which depends on the image and the Quality setting. PNG output has no quality setting.
- Are my photo's camera details kept?
- No. Re-encoding drops EXIF, GPS, and color-profile metadata. Orientation is applied when the image is decoded, so a rotated phone photo still displays the right way up.
