JPG to PNG converter - lossless saving

• Further editing - every JPG save adds new loss. A PNG working file can be saved again and again without degrading.
• Site requirements - some platforms, generators and print services insist on PNG files.
• Graphics with text - later edits such as captions and arrows stay crisp in PNG, without artefacts.

No. The conversion stores exactly what is in the JPG file - it cannot bring back detail lost to JPG compression. It does not remove the background either: JPG has no transparency, so the PNG will have a solid, opaque background. To cut out a background, use the background remover or a graphics editor. Remember that the PNG will be several times bigger than the JPG - a 3 MB 12 MP photo can grow to 15-20 MB.

The size grows because PNG losslessly stores the JPG’s noise and artefacts too. If a site requires PNG but has a size limit, first resize the photo. If you just need a lighter file for a website, JPG to WebP is the better choice, and to embed an image in HTML or CSS use image to Base64.

Rule of thumb: keep JPG for photos you only view and share; choose PNG when the file will be edited repeatedly, get text, arrows or other graphics added, or when the place you upload it to demands it.

Conversion runs entirely in your browser (Canvas API). Files are never sent to a server, so you can safely convert private photos, scans and company graphics. Saving to a new format also strips EXIF metadata, including GPS coordinates.
