Format converter

Convert between PNG, WebP, AVIF, JPEG, BMP, and TIFF — batch-drop multiple files, no upload, no quality loss when going lossless-to-lossless.

What it does

The Format Converter changes a file's encoding without changing its dimensions. Drop one or more files, pick a target format, and download the re-encoded copies.

Supported formats:

  • PNG — lossless, alpha. Universal compatibility, larger file size.
  • WebP — lossy or lossless, alpha. Modern default. Smaller than PNG, supported everywhere.
  • AVIF — lossy or lossless, alpha + HDR. Smallest output but slowest to encode.
  • JPEG — lossy, no alpha. Smallest universal-compatibility option.
  • BMP — uncompressed. Useful for downstream tools that reject everything else (some Windows utilities, certain CNC software).
  • TIFF — high-bit-depth, multi-page. Common in print workflows.

When format conversion matters

Most modern tools accept any of the above, so conversion is usually about:

  • Hitting an upload requirement that names a specific extension.
  • Migrating older PNG-only artwork into WebP to shrink page weight on a site.
  • Producing JPEG copies of transparent PNGs for email signatures or other "no transparency" destinations.
  • Standardizing a folder before passing to a tool that mishandles mixed formats.

Quality settings (for lossy targets)

When converting to a lossy format (WebP, AVIF, JPEG), you can choose:

  • High (90–95) — visually identical to the source for nearly all photographs.
  • Balanced (75–85) — meaningful size savings, fine for most web use.
  • Maximum compression (60) — only when file size beats fidelity.

When converting between two lossless formats (PNG↔WebP-lossless), pixel data is preserved bit-for-bit. No quality is lost.

Alpha channel handling

  • PNG → WebP / AVIF / TIFF — alpha preserved.
  • PNG → JPEG / BMP — alpha is flattened against the matte colour you pick (white by default).
  • JPEG → anything — there is no alpha to recover; output is fully opaque.

Batch conversion

Drop multiple files at once. Each is converted independently and added to the download list. There is no server upload — every file is encoded locally and never leaves your device.

Privacy

The encoder uses the browser's built-in image pipeline (WebCodecs / OffscreenCanvas) plus a WASM AVIF encoder. None of your files are uploaded.
