    The details

    What happens when you convert between document formats

    Lossless images with transparency. The safe choice for graphics, screenshots and scans. The document is opened in a layout engine and re-saved in the target format, mapping each style onto the closest equivalent in the new format. The result is a the default photo format. every camera, every phone and every printer speaks it, produced entirely inside your browser.

    What survives

    • The text and the paragraph structure
    • Most formatting: fonts, sizes, colours, alignment, lists and tables
    • Embedded images

    What changes

    • Styles that have no equivalent are approximated
    • The file may gain or lose features the target format does not support

    Where it goes wrong

    • Styles are usually mapped by name, so renaming a style before converting can lose the mapping
    • The target format may not support the same page size or margins

    Why anyone would do this

    Different teams use different formats, and the content should not be held hostage by that.

    About the format

    Lossless images with transparency.

    Deflate compression applied to raw pixel data, chunk by chunk. Nothing is thrown away, so the pixels you put in are the pixels you get out.

    Where it is good
    • Lossless — no quality is lost, no matter how many times you convert
    • Supports full transparency
    • Handles flat graphics and text perfectly, with no compression artefacts
    Where it falls short
    • Large files: a phone-sized PNG can be 10–20 MB
    • No photographic compression, so photos look enormous
    • No support for animation beyond the separate APNG format
    You will find it on
    Designers, developers, scanners, documentation teams

    The thing people miss

    Converting a 4 MB JPG to PNG can make the file 20 MB or more, because the JPG had thrown away detail that PNG now has to store.

    About the target

    The default photo format.

    A lossy, block-based compression called JPEG. The file is a grid of small blocks, each one stored slightly differently from the last, and the decoder guesses the missing detail when it opens.

    • Universally supported — it opens everywhere, on every device, in every browser
    • Very small files for the quality it delivers
    • Camera phones, scanners and social platforms all default to it

    Real jobs

    What people are actually doing with PNG

    Screenshots and UI assets that need crisp edges

    Logos and diagrams that need a transparent background

    Scanned documents where text edges must stay sharp

    Questions

    PNG conversion questions

    What actually happens to my PNG file when I convert it to JPG?

    The document is opened in a layout engine and re-saved in the target format, mapping each style onto the closest equivalent in the new format. So the PNG file is unpacked, the content is laid out, and the result is written out as JPG. The text and the paragraph structure survives unchanged.

    Will converting PNG to JPG reduce the quality?

    Partly. Styles that have no equivalent are approximated The text itself is never re-typed, so no words are lost.

    Is my PNG file uploaded to a server?

    No. This PNG to JPG conversion runs as JavaScript inside your browser tab. The file is read from your device and the result is written back to your device, so there is no upload step, no file-size limit and no copy of your PNG file on any server.

    Do I need an account or will there be a watermark?

    Neither. There is no sign-up step, no email capture and no watermark on the output. The only limits are the ones your own device imposes.

    What is the most common mistake people make when converting PNG to JPG?

    Styles are usually mapped by name, so renaming a style before converting can lose the mapping

    Why would somebody convert PNG to JPG at all?

    Different teams use different formats, and the content should not be held hostage by that. In short: screenshots and ui assets that need crisp edges

    Something most people do not know about PNG?

    Converting a 4 MB JPG to PNG can make the file 20 MB or more, because the JPG had thrown away detail that PNG now has to store.
