When PNG is the right target

You need lossless storage or repeated editing without further JPEG artefacts.
The image has text, line art or flat colours where JPEG blocking is visible.
A tool or form explicitly requires PNG.

For photographs that will be uploaded once, keeping JPEG and compressing it is usually smaller. Use the image compressor for that.

What this page does not do

It does not upscale or add detail.
It does not remove watermarks or retouch the image.
It does not accept PNG, WebP or SVG input — use the matching converter.

JPG to PNG questions

Does converting to PNG restore lost quality?

No. JPEG compression is lossy and irreversible. Converting to PNG keeps the current pixels exactly, but it cannot bring back detail that was discarded when the photo was saved as JPEG.

Why is the PNG larger than the JPG?

PNG is lossless, so it stores every pixel without throwing away detail. Photos usually become several times larger. PNG is the better choice for screenshots, logos and images with sharp edges or transparency.

Is the file really a PNG?

Yes. The tool re-encodes the pixels and then checks the produced bytes for the PNG signature before offering the download. Renaming a file is never used as a conversion.

What about EXIF and orientation?

Orientation is applied to the pixels before encoding. EXIF metadata such as camera model and GPS location is not carried into the PNG.
