Why convert PNG to JPEG?
PNG offers lossless quality and transparency, making it ideal for graphics and screenshots. However, PNG files are often much larger than necessary for photographs. Converting PNG to JPEG reduces file sizes by 50-70% with minimal visible quality loss, making images faster to share and easier to store—perfect for photos that don't need transparency.
