how to convert jpg to png without losing quality
- drop one or many jpg or jpeg files on the box above.
- wait a moment while each picture is converted in your browser.
- download the png files one by one, or press download all for a zip.
a jpg already lost some detail when it was saved. converting it to png cannot add that detail back, but it also does not lose any more, because png is lossless. that makes png useful as an editing format: open it, change it and save it again as many times as you like without extra artifacts.
you will still see jpg artifacts, such as blocky areas around text and fuzzy edges. if the picture looks poor, the problem is in the source file, so look for a larger or less compressed original rather than trying to enhance this one. keep the original jpg as your backup.

frequently asked questions
does png look better than jpg?
only if the source had no loss. a png made from a jpg looks identical to that jpg. png only prevents further quality loss from future edits.
will the colors change?
no. the colors in the browser are copied pixel for pixel. very rarely, a jpg with a special color profile can look slightly different in programs that do not read the profile.
is a png good for printing?
yes, a png prints as well as the pixels allow. resolution matters more than format, so check that the image has enough pixels for the print size.
