What happens to your data

Kept

  • The TGA's transparency (alpha channel) is read
  • Saved as a JPG at quality 80, a good balance between sharpness and file size
  • Opens on every device, in every app and on every website

Good to know

  • JPG is lossy and has no transparency.
  • Transparent areas become white, because the new format has no transparency.
  • The new format is lossy, so tiny pixel-level differences from the original are expected. Keep the original if you need exact pixels.

TGA vs JPG

TGA

A TGA (Targa) file stores images without losing quality and supports transparency. It was built for early video and graphics cards and is still common in game development, 3D rendering and texture work.

Used in: Game development · 3D textures · Video & graphics pipelines

JPG

A JPG (or JPEG) file is the most common photo format — it compresses images by slightly reducing quality to keep file sizes small. It's what your phone camera, most cameras, and the web use by default for photos.

Used in: Photos & camera exports · Web pages & email · Social media uploads
