Why Convert PNG to JPG?
PNG files are often unnecessarily large for photographs and web images. JPG uses lossy compression that can reduce file sizes by 80-90% with minimal visible quality loss. This makes your images faster to upload, share, and load on websites. Converting to JPG is essential for web optimization and reducing storage space.

Technical Details
JPG uses DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform) compression which analyzes image blocks and removes data the human eye is less sensitive to. At 90% quality, the visual difference from the original is typically imperceptible. Note: transparent areas in PNG will become solid (usually white) in JPG.
FAQ
Will I lose quality?
JPG uses lossy compression, so there's some quality loss. However, at 90% quality, the difference is usually imperceptible to the human eye.
What happens to transparency?
JPG doesn't support transparency. Transparent areas will be converted to a solid color (white by default).
How much smaller will my file be?
Typically 50-90% smaller, depending on the image content and quality setting you choose.
