Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is my JPG file uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion from JPG to PNG happens entirely within your web browser using JavaScript and the HTML Canvas element. Your image file is not sent to any server.
What's the difference between JPG and PNG?
JPG (or JPEG) is a lossy compression format, best suited for photographs. It achieves smaller file sizes by discarding some image data. PNG is a lossless compression format, meaning no data is lost. It supports transparency and is often better for graphics, logos, and images with sharp lines or text.
Will the converted PNG file be larger than the original JPG?
Often, yes. Because PNG uses lossless compression, it usually results in larger file sizes compared to the lossy compression of JPG, especially for photographic images. However, the PNG will retain the full quality of the image data present in the original JPG (minus any initial JPG compression artifacts).
