Convert JPG to PNG
JPG compression can soften fine detail over repeated edits — converting to PNG gives you a lossless copy to work from, or a format that supports transparency once you edit it further.
What is JPG to PNG?
This JPG to PNG converter re-encodes a compressed JPG photo into PNG's lossless format, so no further quality is lost if you keep editing the file. It's also the right starting point if you plan to remove the background afterward, since PNG is the format that supports transparency.

Common questions
Will converting JPG to PNG add transparency?
No — a JPG has no transparency data to begin with, so the PNG starts fully opaque. You'd need to remove a background separately in an image editor.
Why is the PNG file bigger than the JPG?
PNG is a lossless format, so it stores more detail than JPG's compressed encoding — that's the trade-off for no further quality loss.
Does converting a JPG to PNG improve its quality?
No — it stops further quality loss from happening on future edits, but it can't restore detail the original JPG compression already removed.
