Pro Tip: Transparency & Backgrounds
When converting a PNG image with a transparent background to JPG or BMP, the transparent areas will be filled with a white background. This is because JPEG and BMP formats do not support transparency. If you need to preserve transparency, convert to PNG or GIF instead.
Choosing the Right Format for the Job
Each format has a sweet spot. JPG is best for photographs and any image with smooth color gradients — it gets dramatically smaller files than PNG with virtually invisible loss at 90% quality. PNG wins for screenshots, logos, line art, and anything with sharp edges or transparency, because lossless compression keeps text crisp and supports a true alpha channel. BMP is rarely the right modern choice but is still required by some legacy Windows applications, embedded systems, and printer drivers that pre-date JPEG support. GIF is limited to 256 colors per frame, so it's poor for photos but useful for simple animations and very small icons where the palette restriction doesn't matter.
A Concrete Conversion Walkthrough
Suppose you've designed a logo in Figma and exported it as a 240 KB PNG with transparency. Your client wants it as a JPG for an email signature where their mail client doesn't render PNG reliably. Drop the PNG in, choose JPG as the target, set quality to 92%. The output will be ~45 KB — a fraction of the original. The transparent background will turn white, which is fine for an email signature on a white email body but wrong for a colored letterhead. If the client uses a dark email theme, generate a second copy with a black or branded fill by editing the original in Figma before exporting, since this tool defaults to white. For the website hero on the same logo, keep the original PNG: a 240 KB lossless logo is small enough that there's no reason to compromise edge quality.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my converted JPG larger than the original PNG?
Sometimes happens with screenshots and line art. PNG's lossless compression handles flat color regions extremely well, while JPG's frequency-based compression spends extra bytes encoding sharp edges. Stick with PNG for content like that.
Does this support WebP or HEIC?
The output formats are JPG, PNG, BMP, and GIF — the four most universally readable formats. WebP and HEIC offer better compression but aren't accepted by every email client, government portal, or older OS, which is why we stay focused on the universal four.
Will conversion preserve EXIF metadata like GPS or camera info?
No — the conversion process re-encodes the pixel data and drops EXIF. That's actually a privacy benefit when sharing photos online, since GPS coordinates and timestamps don't survive the round trip.
