PNG converter
PNG stores images losslessly and supports transparency, which makes it suitable for screenshots, logos and graphics. For photos and the web it is often converted to JPG or WebP, and for documents to PDF.

When to replace PNG
PNG takes more space than JPG and WebP. If transparency is not needed, converting to JPG reduces the size of a photo, while WebP provides modern compression for a website.
Transparency and compatibility
When PNG is converted to JPG, transparent areas become white. If transparency matters, use WebP or keep the PNG. PDF is convenient for printing and documents.
Format questions
Is transparency preserved?
WebP keeps transparency. JPG cannot store it, so the background becomes white. PNG and WebP support an alpha channel.
Why is PNG larger than JPG?
PNG uses lossless compression and stores more data. JPG compresses more aggressively, so the file is smaller but quality may drop.
Can I create a PDF from PNG?
Yes. The PNG to PDF tool places the image on a document page while keeping its proportions.
