How do I make a PNG file smaller?

Converting it to JPG usually shrinks photos and screenshots dramatically. Balanced quality keeps them looking sharp while cutting the size for email, chat and upload forms.

What happens to a transparent background?

It turns white. JPG cannot store transparency, and a white background prints and displays cleanly, whereas leaving it undefined would turn those areas black.

When should I keep PNG instead?

Keep PNG for logos, icons and anything with sharp edges or transparency. JPG is the better choice for photos and screenshots that simply need to be smaller.

Set it up the way you want
