PNG vs JPG
PNG uses lossless compression, so every pixel is kept exactly, and it supports full transparency. Photos saved as PNG are usually much larger than the same photo as JPG.
JPG (JPEG) is the standard format for photographs. It uses lossy compression, which discards fine detail the eye rarely notices to keep files small, and it has no transparency.
What changes when you convert PNG to JPG
- JPG has no transparency, so any transparent areas in the PNG are filled with a solid background colour (usually white).
- Saving as JPG applies lossy compression. Use a high quality setting if you plan to edit the image again, because each re-save loses a little more detail.
- Convert when the place you are sending the image needs JPG. JPG is best for photos and anything you need to open on any device, email client or upload form.
Convert PNG to JPG to dramatically reduce file size (transparency will be lost).
