Image Converter – Convert to JPG, PNG, WebP, BMP & ICO

Step by step with the Image Converter

Drag images onto the drop area, select Choose Files, or paste an image with Ctrl + V.
Pick the output format. For JPG and WebP set the quality; for formats without transparency, pick the colour that fills transparent areas.
For SVG files, choose the render size: 1× uses the drawing's own size, 2× and 4× give a larger, sharper image.
Select Convert. Each file shows its new format and size when it is done.
Download the files one at a time, or select Download all (ZIP).

A real example

Converting a 1200 × 800 logo saved as logo.png with a transparent background:

To ICO: logo.ico holding seven sizes, 16, 24, 32, 48, 64, 128 and 256 pixels square, each with the logo fitted inside and the transparency kept.
To JPG: logo.jpg at 1200 × 800, with the transparent areas filled in the background colour you chose (white by default).
To WebP: logo.webp at 1200 × 800 with transparency kept, usually much smaller than the PNG.

A GIF is converted from its first frame, and the result line says so, so an animation is never lost without a warning.

What happens to your image

Each file is first identified by its content. The converter reads the first few kilobytes and matches them against the signatures of every format it knows, so a PNG saved with a .jpg name is still read as PNG, and a file that is not an image is refused before anything else happens.

The image is then decoded by your browser, or by the tool's own decoder for formats browsers cannot read (TIFF, outside Safari), drawn onto a canvas, and encoded again in the format you chose. JPG and WebP are written at the quality you set; PNG, BMP and ICO are lossless. A canvas has no notion of metadata, so EXIF data, GPS positions and comments are not carried across, and photos are turned upright before they are drawn.

ICO files are built from PNG images at 16, 24, 32, 48, 64, 128 and 256 pixels (only the sizes no larger than your image), each padded to a square with transparency. SVG drawings are cleaned first: scripts, embedded HTML, event handlers and references to external files are removed, and the drawing is rendered as an image at one, two or four times its declared size.

When the Image Converter helps

Turning WebP images saved from a website into JPG or PNG for software that does not open WebP.
Making a multi-size favicon.ico from a square PNG logo.
Converting scanner TIFFs into JPGs small enough to email or upload.
Rendering an SVG logo to PNG at two or four times its size for a presentation or a document.

If the result is not what you expected

WebP is marked as not supported in this browser: Safari can open WebP but cannot save it from a canvas, which is the only way a web page can create one. Choose JPG or PNG, or use Chrome, Edge or Firefox when you need a WebP file.
This TIFF uses JPEG compression, which cannot be decoded here: Some scanners and cameras store JPEG data inside a TIFF container. Open the page in Safari, which decodes these natively, or re-save the file from an image editor with LZW or no compression and convert it here.
The transparent background turned white or another colour: JPG and BMP have no transparency, so transparent pixels have to be filled with a colour. Choose PNG, WebP or ICO to keep transparency, or pick the fill colour under Background for transparent areas.
An animated GIF became a still image: Every output format here holds one still picture, so a GIF is converted from its first frame. Keep the GIF itself when the animation matters, or convert it with a video tool to MP4 or animated WebP.

Questions about the Image Converter

Can I convert several images at once?

Yes. Add up to 50 images, choose the output format once, and select Convert. They are processed one after another so the page stays responsive, and Download all packs the results into a single ZIP file.

What does the ICO option produce?

One .ico file containing the image at several sizes, from 16 × 16 up to 256 × 256 pixels, each stored as PNG so transparency is kept. Browsers and Windows pick the size they need. Start from a square image of at least 256 pixels for the sharpest result.

Is converting an SVG safe whatever it contains?

Yes. The SVG is cleaned before it is drawn: scripts, embedded web content, event handlers and links to other files are removed, and it is drawn as an image, which browsers never allow to run code. Fonts and pictures an SVG loads from elsewhere are not fetched, so text in an unusual font may appear in a fallback font.

Does conversion keep EXIF data?

No. The image is redrawn from its pixels, so EXIF, GPS, XMP and other metadata are not carried into the new file. Photos are turned upright first, so pictures that relied on an orientation tag still display the right way round.

Are my images uploaded?

No. Conversion runs in your browser. Files are read on your device and the converted versions are saved straight back to it.
