What is a .jpg file?

JPG compresses photos by discarding detail the eye notices least. That makes small files and works everywhere, but each re-save loses a little more, and JPG cannot store transparency. Text, logos and screenshots show faint smudges at the edges.

Because JPG is the most common input, the usual jobs are: make it smaller, make it a specific size, turn it into a PDF, or switch to a format that supports transparency or smaller web files.

How to open or change a JPG

Every browser, phone and computer opens a JPG. To change it, drop it on the tool: choose a size preset (Amazon 1600 px, Etsy 2000 px, Shopify 2048 px and others), a quality slider for the file size, and an output format.

  1. Drop your JPG files below.
  2. Pick an output format and, if you want, a size preset or quality.
  3. Press Convert and download.

JPG questions

Is .jpg the same as .jpeg?

Yes. They are the same format. The three-letter .jpg extension exists because older Windows limited extensions to three characters.

How do I make a JPG smaller?

Lower the quality slider or pick a smaller size preset, then convert. Quality 85 is usually indistinguishable from the original and much smaller.

Can I turn a JPG into a PDF?

Yes. Choose PDF as the output, or use the image-to-PDF page to combine several JPGs into one multi-page PDF.

Can a JPG have a transparent background?

No. JPG has no transparency. Convert to PNG or WebP if you need it, but a JPG's background pixels are already solid.

Are my photos uploaded?

No. Everything runs in your browser.
