How to convert JPG to PNG
Create the PNG
Click Convert to PNG. There is no JPEG quality slider for this export.
Save the copy
Check the preview and download the PNG if it meets your requirements.
A few useful details
Change the format when a workflow asks for PNG
If an editor or upload form specifically asks for PNG, you can make a copy of your JPEG here. The pixel dimensions stay the same, and the original file is left alone.
PNG avoids another lossy JPEG save, but it does not reverse damage already in the source. Blurry letters and compression blocks will still be visible in the PNG.
Expect the file to get larger in some cases. Also, saving as PNG does not remove the background: a JPEG has no transparent area to carry over. Use Background Remover if you need a cutout.
Before you save the result
The output format is PNG. Always check that the destination accepts that extension.
The original file stays unchanged; download a separate copy only after checking the preview.
Use PNG for the workflow, not as a repair trick
Conversion can meet a format requirement
An editor may ask for PNG even though your source is JPEG. This converter makes that format change while keeping the decoded dimensions. It is a compatibility step, not a promise that the new picture contains more useful detail than the original.
Existing JPEG artefacts remain in the pixels
Rough edges, blocks around letters or blurry features are already part of the decoded image. PNG can store those pixels without another lossy JPEG save, but it cannot identify and restore the original information that was removed earlier.
Transparency needs to exist or be created
PNG supports an alpha channel, but a normal JPEG has an existing solid background. This converter keeps that background. If you want a person or product cut out, use Background Remover and inspect its edges instead of expecting the format change to perform that edit.
Check the larger file is actually necessary
Photo PNGs can be much larger than the JPEG source. If the destination does not need PNG and the JPEG already works, keeping it may be more practical. Save a PNG when it serves the workflow, and retain the original for other uses.

Frequently asked questions
Does a PNG automatically have a transparent background?
No. PNG supports transparency, but this conversion keeps the background already present in your JPEG.
Will it look sharper than the JPG?
Not because of the conversion. It stores the pixels it can decode from the existing JPEG.
Why is the download bigger?
PNG and JPEG compress differently. A photograph often needs more space as PNG.
Why is there no quality slider?
This page exports PNG, so it does not offer a JPEG-style lossy quality setting.
Can I convert the PNG back to JPEG later?
Yes, but use the original JPEG if you still have it. An extra round of conversion is unnecessary when the original already fits the next job.
