What happens to your data

Kept

  • Every pixel and the transparency of the PNG are read exactly as they are
  • Saved as WebP at quality 80, usually much smaller than JPG or PNG at the same look
  • Transparency is kept

Good to know

  • Very old software and some printers cannot open WebP. Use JPG or PNG there.
  • The new format is lossy, so tiny pixel-level differences from the original are expected. Keep the original if you need exact pixels.

PNG vs WEBP

PNG

A PNG file stores images without losing any quality (lossless), and supports transparency. It's the default choice for screenshots, logos, icons, and any graphic that needs a see-through background.

Used in: Screenshots · Logos & icons · Graphics with transparency

WEBP

A WebP file is a modern image format from Google that compresses smaller than JPG or PNG at the same quality, while supporting both lossy and lossless modes plus transparency. It's now the format most websites serve automatically to speed up page loads.

Used in: Modern websites · Faster page loads · Automatic image optimization
