How to convert PNG to JPEG on Mac (Preview)

Does converting PNG to JPEG lose quality?

Yes, a little. JPEG uses lossy compression, so converting a PNG to JPEG discards some image data to make the file smaller. For photos at a high quality setting the difference is usually hard to see, but sharp text, thin lines, and flat-color graphics can show blurry edges or small artifacts. JPEG also cannot keep transparency. Keep your original PNG in case you need it later.

• Start from the original PNG, not a copy that was already compressed or shared through a messaging app.
• Avoid converting the JPEG back to PNG expecting to recover detail, because lost detail does not come back.
• Keep the original size. Enlarging an image does not add detail.

PNG to JPEG test: file size before and after

Our test: We converted an 896×1200 pixel PNG photo of 1.4 MB with this tool. The resulting JPEG was 92 KB, about 15 times smaller (roughly 93% less), with the same dimensions. Test date: October 2, 2026. This is one sample: results vary with the image, and simple graphics with flat colors can behave differently from photos.

PNG vs JPEG: what is the difference?

JPEG and PNG are two different image formats. JPEG uses lossy compression for small files and suits photos. PNG uses lossless compression, supports transparency, and suits logos, screenshots, and graphics.

Is PNG better quality than JPEG?

PNG keeps every pixel exactly and does not lose quality when saved again, while JPEG loses a little each time. That makes PNG the better choice for graphics, text, and images you edit often. For photos, a high-quality JPEG looks almost the same at a much smaller size.

Which image is best, PNG or JPEG?

• Photos for web, email, and social media: JPEG, because the files are smaller.
• Logos, icons, screenshots, and text in the image: PNG, because edges and letters stay sharp.
• Images with a transparent background: PNG, because JPEG does not support transparency.

Can I use PNG instead of JPEG?

Often yes, because most websites, apps, and editors accept both. But PNG photos are usually much larger, which makes uploads and page loads slower, and some forms, platforms, or print services accept only JPEG. Convert to JPEG when a size or format limit applies.

Are PNG and JPEG the same?

No. They are different formats with different compression. JPEG is lossy and PNG is lossless. JPEG is sometimes written as JPG, and those two are the same format: only the file extension changes.

What are the disadvantages of a PNG?

• Larger files for photos, which are slower to upload, send, and load.
• No CMYK support, which some print shops ask for.
• Less practical for email attachments and pages that must load fast.

For websites: use JPEG for photos and banners, and PNG for logos, icons, and anything that needs transparency. See PNG vs JPEG for websites: which format is better.

For printing: resolution matters more than format, so aim for about 300 pixels per inch at the printed size. Converting to JPEG does not add pixels, and PNG does not support CMYK, so check with your print shop first if they ask for CMYK files. More in our guide on whether PNG or JPEG is better for printing. To weigh the format itself, read the advantages and disadvantages of JPEG.

When should you convert PNG to JPEG?

• You need a smaller file for a website, email, or upload limit.
• A platform, form, or app asks for a JPEG file.
• The image is a photo and does not need transparency.

If the image has transparency, sharp text, or flat-color graphics, keep the PNG.

PNG to JPEG: common questions

Can I turn a PNG into a JPEG?

Yes. Upload the PNG to this converter, click Convert, and download the JPEG. No editing or software is needed.

What happens to transparency when I convert PNG to JPEG?

JPEG does not support transparency, so transparent areas are filled with a solid color. If the background color matters, check the result, or place the image on the background you want in an image editor before converting.

Does PNG to JPEG always make the file smaller?

Usually for photos, but not always. Simple graphics and screenshots with few colors can stay about the same size or even grow. If size is your goal, compare the files after converting.

Can I convert a PNG larger than 10 MB to JPEG?

Each file can be up to 10 MB. If your PNG is larger, reduce its size or dimensions in an image editor first, then convert it.

Can I convert the JPEG back to PNG?

Yes, but the PNG will not recover the detail JPEG compression already removed, and the file will usually be larger. Keep your original PNG if you may need it.

Can I just rename .png to .jpeg?

No. Renaming a file does not change its real format, and some websites will reject it. To get a true JPEG, convert the file with a tool like this one.

Is a screenshot a PNG or JPEG?

Most screenshots are PNG files. Windows, Mac, and iPhone save them as PNG by default, although some Android phones can save screenshots as JPEG. Check the file extension to be sure.

Can I turn a screenshot into a JPEG?

Yes. Upload the screenshot to this converter and download the JPEG. Because screenshots often contain small text, a JPEG can look slightly blurry around letters, so keep the original PNG if sharpness matters.

Are iPhone images JPEG or PNG?

By default, iPhone photos are saved as HEIC. If you go to Settings, Camera, Formats and choose Most Compatible, new photos are saved as JPEG. Screenshots on iPhone are PNG files.

Is it safe to convert my images here? Are they stored?
