Convert JPEG to PNG
JPEG compresses photographs by discarding detail the eye is least likely to notice, which makes photo files small. Converting it to PNG gives you a file suited to logos, icons, screenshots and any image with sharp edges or transparency.

About the formats
About JPEG
JPEG compresses photographs by discarding detail the eye is least likely to notice, which makes photo files small. It is normally used for photographs, camera output and images on the web. It cannot store transparency, and every re-save discards a little more detail.
About PNG
PNG compresses without discarding any detail, and supports a full alpha channel for transparency. It is normally used for logos, icons, screenshots and any image with sharp edges or transparency. Lossless compression means photographs come out considerably larger than the same image as JPEG.
What happens to your file
Your file is uploaded to FilesMagic's own conversion servers over an encrypted connection, converted there, and deleted as soon as the download has been sent. We do not keep copies, and we do not log file names or file contents.
Questions
Is my file uploaded anywhere?
Yes. Converting this format needs software that cannot run in a browser, so the file is uploaded to FilesMagic's own servers, converted, and deleted once your download has been sent.
Does converting JPEG to PNG reduce quality?
PNG discards nothing, so no further detail is lost. It cannot recover what JPEG compression already removed, though, and the resulting file will normally be larger than the original.
How big a file can I convert?
Files can be up to 25 MB. That is generous for this format - if a file is larger than that it is usually because of embedded images, and compressing those before converting normally brings it well under the limit.
