Why Convert an Image?
Different image formats are designed for different purposes. A format that works well for one website, application or workflow may not be suitable for another.
You may want to convert an image when:
- A website or application requires a specific image format
- You need a more widely supported format
- You want to prepare an image for web publishing
- You need to use an image with different software or services
- You want to convert an image to a web-friendly format such as JPG, PNG or WebP
JPG vs. PNG vs. WebP
JPG, PNG and WebP are three common image formats, but they have different characteristics.
JPG
JPG is widely supported and commonly used for photographs and images containing many colors. It is a practical choice when broad compatibility is important.
PNG
PNG is commonly used for graphics, screenshots, logos and other images where lossless storage or transparency may be useful.
WebP
WebP is a modern image format designed for web use. It supports modern image compression and is widely supported by current web browsers.
The best format depends on how and where you plan to use the image.
Convert JPG to PNG
Converting JPG to PNG can be useful when a website, application or workflow specifically requires a PNG file.
For a dedicated JPG-to-PNG workflow, you can also use Rubic8's JPG to PNG Converter.
Convert PNG to JPG
JPG is a common choice for photographs and general-purpose image sharing. If you have a PNG image but need a JPG file, select JPG as the output format.
You can also use the dedicated PNG to JPG Converter.
Convert WebP Images
WebP is widely used by modern websites, but some workflows may still require another image format. With the Image Converter, you can choose another available output format for your image.
If you specifically need a JPG file, try the WebP to JPG Converter.
Image Conversion vs. Image Resizing
Image conversion and image resizing solve different problems. Conversion changes the image file format, while resizing changes the image dimensions.
If you need to change image dimensions, aspect ratio or orientation, use Rubic8's Image Resizer.
Which Image Format Should I Choose?
The right format depends on your intended use. JPG is commonly used for photographs, PNG is useful for graphics and transparency, and WebP is designed for modern web use. GIF and BMP may be useful when a particular application or workflow requires those formats.
If a website or application specifies a required file format, choose that format as your output.
