Image to PNG Converter: Preserve Transparency, Convert Free

Convert JPG, WEBP, GIF, BMP, SVG, HEIC (iPhone photos), PDF, TIFF, and PSD files into PNG — right in your browser, with transparency fully preserved. Nothing uploads to a server, so your images and documents never leave your device.

Add up to 20 files at once, resize dimensions, choose whether to keep transparency or add a background color, and download each PNG individually or all together as a ZIP.

Converting PDF, TIFF, and PSD Files

Beyond standard image formats, this tool also decodes three document and design formats entirely in your browser — no upload required:

  • PDF: every page in the PDF is converted into its own separate PNG. A 5-page PDF becomes 5 downloadable images.
  • TIFF: the first image/frame in the file is converted. Multi-page TIFFs are not fully supported yet.
  • PSD: the flattened composite image (what the file looks like with all visible layers combined) is converted, with transparency preserved — individual layers aren’t extracted separately.

Why Convert Images to PNG?

PNG is a lossless format that supports transparency, which makes it the better choice — instead of JPG — whenever you need:

  • To preserve a transparent background (logos, icons, product cutouts, overlays)
  • No loss of quality from compression — every pixel stays exactly as sharp as the source
  • Crisp edges and text, which matters for screenshots, diagrams, and graphics
  • To turn an iPhone HEIC photo, PDF page, or PSD preview into a widely-supported format without losing transparency

PNG vs JPG: Which Should You Use?

PNG and JPG solve different problems, and picking the wrong one is a common mistake:

Use PNG whenUse JPG when
The image has transparency (logos, icons, graphics)The image is a photo with no transparency
You need crisp text, lines, or flat colors (screenshots, diagrams)File size matters more than pixel-perfect detail
You’ll edit the image further and want no quality lossYou’re publishing a finished photo to the web

Need to go the other direction? Our Image to JPG Converter handles PNG-to-JPG and the same set of formats in reverse.

What Happens to Transparency?

Unlike JPG, PNG fully supports transparent pixels. By default, this tool keeps any transparency in your source image intact — nothing gets filled in. If you’d rather flatten the image onto a solid background (for example, adding a white background behind a logo), switch to “Add solid color” and pick your color before converting.

Does Converting to PNG Reduce File Size?

Usually not — and for photos, PNG files are often larger than the original. PNG’s lossless compression preserves every pixel, so it doesn’t shrink files the way JPG’s lossy compression does. Use PNG when quality and transparency matter more than file size; use JPG when file size is the priority.

Who Should Use This Tool?

  • Designers and marketers who need a logo or icon with a transparent background
  • Bloggers and content creators preparing screenshots or diagrams that need crisp, lossless detail
  • iPhone users converting HEIC photos into a format that preserves full quality
  • Online sellers creating transparent product cutout images for listings
  • Anyone who wants to convert images without uploading them to a third-party server

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this tool upload my images anywhere?

No. Every conversion happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your images and documents are never sent to any server.

Which formats can I convert to PNG?

JPG, WEBP, GIF, BMP, SVG, HEIC/HEIF (iPhone photos), PDF, TIFF, and PSD (Photoshop) can all be converted to PNG with this tool.

Will converting to PNG keep the transparent background?

Yes, by default. Transparency in your source image is preserved unless you switch to “Add solid color” and choose a background color before converting.

Why is my converted PNG bigger than the original file?

PNG uses lossless compression, so it doesn’t discard image data the way JPG does. For photos especially, this often results in a larger file — that’s expected, and it’s the trade-off for zero quality loss and transparency support.

What happens when I convert a PDF?

Every page in the PDF is converted into its own separate PNG image, which you can download individually or all together as a ZIP.

Does this support multi-page TIFF files?

Only the first image in a TIFF file is converted currently. Support for additional frames in multi-page TIFFs may be added later.

What does converting a PSD file give me?

You’ll get the flattened composite image — what the file looks like with all visible layers combined, transparency included — not the individual layers separately.

How many images can I convert at once?

Up to 20 images per batch. You can download them individually or all together as a single ZIP file.

Can I resize images while converting them?

Yes. Enter a width and/or height in pixels before converting. With “Keep aspect ratio” enabled, entering just one dimension automatically scales the other proportionally so your image never looks stretched.

Is this tool free to use?

Yes, completely free with no signup required.
