PNG Converter
A free PNG converter that runs in your browser: drop a PNG in to turn it into WebP, JPG, AVIF, PDF and more, or drop something else in to get a PNG back. Nothing is uploaded, there's no signup, and whole folders are fine.

Why convert PNG here
Converting PNG here works in either direction, free, with no account to create and no size limit set by us.
Your files stay with you
Converting your PNG here doesn't send it to a server. It happens on your own computer.
No account, no watermark
No email, no sign-up wall, and nothing stamped across the image you get back.
Whole batches at once
Drop a folder's worth of images. They queue up together and come back as one zip.
We don't set a size limit
Convert a file of any size, as many times as you like. There is no plan tier and no daily cap.
Free, and it stays free
Every conversion here is free to use, with no trial, no credits and nothing held back behind a payment.
It just works
Drop your image in and take the converted file away. Nothing to install, nothing to set up first.
Convert a PNG to another format
A PNG converts to eight formats here, and the right one depends on where the image is going: WebP or AVIF for a web page, JPG for something that has to open anywhere, PDF when a document is wanted rather than a picture.
Which one you want depends on where the picture is going. The notes below say what each conversion does to your image and when it is the right choice, so you can pick without having to know anything about the formats themselves.
- PNG → AVIF
The smallest of the modern formats, and it keeps transparency. It takes noticeably longer, and fewer things open it than WebP.
- PNG → WebP
Transparency carries straight over and most of the weight comes off. The one to pick for anything going on a web page. Open the PNG to WebP converter.
- PNG → JPG
Opens in essentially everything. Transparent areas take a background colour, and you choose which one before converting. Open the PNG to JPG converter.
- PNG → JPEG
The same format and the same bytes as JPG, written with the longer extension. Pick it when something asked for .jpeg specifically.
- PNG → PDF
One page, sized to your image, for when someone wants a document rather than a picture. A batch comes back as one PDF per image.
- PNG → ICO
Windows icons and favicons. Start from a small source image, 256px or under, which is the size range icons actually use.
- PNG → BMP
Uncompressed and readable by almost anything old. Expect a much bigger file than the PNG you started with.
- PNG → JFIF
Another JPEG under a different extension. Worth picking only when a specific piece of software asked for .jfif.
Convert another format into PNG
Eleven formats convert into PNG here, including HEIC from an iPhone, WebP saved from a website and SVG from a design tool. PNG is lossless, so whatever comes out is an exact copy of what the source held.
This is the direction people usually arrive from when something won't open. A photo saved as HEIC that a form refuses, a WebP downloaded from a site that an older editor won't take, an icon nobody can preview: PNG is the safe landing spot for all of them, because it opens in every browser and every built-in photo viewer. The files get bigger, and that's the trade for a copy with nothing thrown away.
Formats without a link convert in the tool above right now; their own pages are still being written.
Questions people ask
Depends where it is going. For a web page, WebP: it keeps a transparent background and gives you a much lighter file. For something that has to open anywhere, JPG, though it needs a background colour behind any transparency. For the lightest file of the three, AVIF, as long as you are happy that older software may not open it.
Yes, if you convert to WebP, AVIF or ICO. All three can hold a see-through background the way PNG does, so it survives untouched and there is nothing to set. JPG, JPEG, JFIF and BMP store every pixel as a solid colour instead, so those four ask you to pick the colour that goes behind the transparency first.
Because this list is what the converter genuinely does rather than what we would like it to do. Everything shown here works right now. Formats that are planned but not finished are left off, rather than listed as though they were ready.
Converting into PNG gives you an exact copy of whatever you fed it, because PNG is lossless and discards nothing. Converting out of PNG depends on the target: WebP, AVIF, JPG, JPEG and JFIF all compress by dropping detail, with a quality slider to set how much, while BMP and ICO keep every pixel.
Every current web browser does, and so does the built-in photo viewer on Windows, macOS, Android and iOS. PNG has been a web standard since the late 1990s, so a file that will not open is usually a sign the file itself is damaged rather than a missing viewer, and converting it will not repair it.
