Frequently Asked Questions

What happens to transparency when converting to JPG?

JPG does not support transparency. Transparent areas will be filled with a solid color, typically white. You can sometimes choose the background color before conversion. Always check the result if transparency was important.

How much smaller will my JPG be?

JPG files are typically 50-90% smaller than equivalent PNGs for photographs. The exact reduction depends on image content and quality settings. Images with lots of solid colors compress even more dramatically.

Does converting to JPG reduce quality?

Yes, JPG uses lossy compression which reduces quality slightly. At high quality settings, the difference is barely visible. At low quality settings for maximum compression, artifacts become noticeable. Balance size and quality based on your needs.
