There are two ways to get started.
Go to the [Upload] menu on the left side of the editor, click [Upload], and select the PNG file you want to convert. Once the upload finishes, your image will appear in the list on the left.
Click the image in your uploads list to add it to the canvas. Drag the corners to fit it to the canvas. If the image and canvas sizes don't match, any empty space may be filled with the background color when you save the file.
JPG doesn't support transparent backgrounds, so any transparent areas in your PNG will be filled with the canvas background color. If you want a color other than white, change the canvas background color first. You can also crop out what you don't need or add text at this step.
Click the [Download] button in the top right of the editor and choose JPG as the file type. You can also choose a download size based on how you plan to use the image.
Click [Download] to save your JPG file. You can also download the same design in other formats like PNG or PDF, or share it with a link.
JPG (JPEG) is an image file format that uses lossy compression to store images like photos at a small file size.
It compresses images by removing information the human eye barely notices, so even color-rich photos can be saved at a much smaller size than PNG. It's the most widely used image format, supported by almost every device, program, and website. However, it doesn't support transparent backgrounds, and quality can degrade slightly each time you re-save it.
PNG keeps quality intact, but its files tend to be large. Photos and screenshots, in particular, can quickly turn into large PNG files, making it easy to hit size limits for email attachments or uploads to online stores and forums.
Converting to JPG reduces file size while keeping the image looking almost the same. Smaller files are faster to upload and send, and images load more quickly on web pages.
Convert your PNG images to JPG with MiriCanvas and finish any edits at the same time.
You don't need to find a separate convert button. Upload your PNG image, place it on the canvas, and choose JPG as the file type when you download. That's all it takes. There's no desktop software to download or update. All you need is an internet connection to get started.
Need to convert several images? Add a page for each image, then select all pages when downloading to get multiple JPGs at once.
When you convert a transparent PNG to JPG in other programs, the background is sometimes filled with black or white and doesn't look the way you intended. With MiriCanvas, you can choose the canvas background color before saving as JPG, so your logos or product images appear against your brand color or any background you like. You can also use a background image or pattern instead of a solid color to create a whole new design.
You don't have to convert the original as is. Crop out what you don't need, or resize it to fit product pages or social media posts before saving as JPG. Applying filters, adjusting brightness and contrast, or adding text and logos takes just a few clicks. There's nothing extra to learn, just select what you want in the settings panel.
Save your converted image as a JPG and send it via email or messaging apps, or post it directly to online stores or blogs. You can also download the same design in other formats like PNG or PDF, so there's no need to find another converter when your needs change. You can even share it with a link, so you can finish everything from converting to sharing in one place.
Pick a template, add your converted image, and start using the design right away. Every template stays fully editable after you bring it in.

Convert when you need to reduce the size of a PNG file or upload an image somewhere that only accepts JPG files. Color-rich images, particularly photos and screenshots, tend to shrink significantly when converted to JPG.
Use it in situations like these:
On the other hand, if you need a transparent background, as with logos and icons, or your graphic contains a lot of text, it's better to keep it as PNG. Converting to JPG fills transparent areas with a background color and can blur the edges around text and lines.
You can convert files using apps built into your computer. If you use Paint on Windows, follow these steps:
On a Mac, open the PNG file in the built-in Preview app, then go to [File] → [Export], change the format to JPEG, and save. You can use the quality slider to balance image quality and file size.
That said, built-in programs make it hard to choose the background color yourself, since transparent areas may be filled with white or black, and they're limited when it comes to editing, such as cropping or adding text. With MiriCanvas, you can set the background color, make the edits you need, and download it directly as a JPG. If you want to convert and edit in one go, give MiriCanvas a try.
Both are among the most widely used image formats, but each works best in different situations.
For example, choose PNG if you want to layer a logo over various designs, and choose JPG if you want to share travel photos at a small file size.
Image formats differ in how they compress images and what features they support, so choose one based on how you plan to use it.
Yes, you can convert PNG images to JPG on the free plan. You also get free access to over 50,000 templates and over 350,000 photos and graphics. If you want premium templates and AI features too, upgrade to the Pro plan. You can see the details on the Pricing page.
Since JPG doesn't support transparent backgrounds, transparent areas are filled with the canvas background color when saved. Set the background color you want before downloading to get a JPG that looks exactly as intended. For details on downloading, see the Download Guide.
