Why Convert JPG to PNG?
While converting JPG to PNG won't restore quality lost during initial JPG compression, it prevents any further quality degradation. Each time you edit and save a JPG, it recompresses and loses more quality. PNG's lossless format ensures your image stays exactly as-is through unlimited saves and edits.

Technical Details
PNG uses lossless DEFLATE compression, meaning the exact pixel data is preserved. When converting from JPG, the existing compression artifacts become 'frozen' - they won't get worse. PNG is also the preferred format for graphics software as it maintains precision during editing workflows.
