Image Converter
Convert any image to PNG, JPG, or WEBP instantly — no upload, runs in your browser.
How to Use
- Drag and drop an image onto the drop zone, or click to browse.
- Choose the output format: PNG, JPG, or WEBP.
- For JPG and WEBP, adjust the quality slider (1–100).
- Preview the original and converted image side by side.
- Click Download to save the converted file.
When to Use This
- Shrinking a WEBP hero image into a JPG that an older CMS will accept, with the size readout showing the trade-off before you commit.
- Turning a BMP exported by an old scanner or Windows utility into a PNG that modern editors and web pages handle without plugins.
- Rendering a logo SVG to a fixed-size PNG when a form, email client or app store listing refuses vector uploads.
- Comparing what a photo costs in each format, since the output panel reports encoded dimensions and an approximate byte size every time.
Frequently Asked Questions
About This Tool
Raster image formats differ mainly in how they trade file size against fidelity. PNG stores every pixel exactly and keeps an alpha channel. JPEG discards the detail the eye is least likely to miss, which is why photographs shrink so much. WEBP can work either way, lossy or lossless, and still carries transparency.
This converter reads PNG, JPG, WEBP, GIF, BMP, SVG and JFIF files, draws the decoded image onto a canvas, and re-encodes it with toDataURL in whichever of PNG, JPG or WEBP you select. A quality slider appears for the two lossy targets and starts at 92; a color swatch appears only for JPG, since that is the one output format with no alpha channel. One file is handled at a time, and nothing is sent anywhere.
Notes & Limits
- Output is limited to PNG, JPG and WEBP. There is no AVIF or TIFF target, and an animated GIF input is captured as a single still frame.
- EXIF does not survive. The canvas re-encode drops camera settings, timestamps and GPS, which helps privacy but destroys metadata you may have wanted to keep.
- Converting JPG to PNG cannot restore detail the original JPEG compression already discarded; the PNG only stops further loss, at a much larger file size.
- One file is converted per run. For a whole folder, repeat the process image by image or reach for a desktop batch tool instead.
