JPG conversion behavior matrix
Every supported JPG conversion: what survives, what drops, what gets regenerated.
| Conversion | Preserved | Dropped | Regenerated |
|---|---|---|---|
| JPG → PNG | Preserved EXIF (written into PNG's eXIf chunk on output), XMP, IPTC, ICC profile | Dropped MakerNote may corrupt during EXIF rewrite (see JPG → WEBP note). | Regenerated Embedded thumbnail regenerated; PNG output gets fresh chunks |
| JPG → WEBP | Preserved EXIF, XMP, IPTC, ICC profile | Dropped MakerNote (EXIF tag 0x927c) may corrupt during EXIF rewrite: its absolute internal offsets break unless the converter copies it as an opaque blob. | Regenerated Thumbnail regenerated as a fresh WEBP-style preview |
| JPG → AVIF | Preserved EXIF, XMP, IPTC, ICC profile | Dropped MakerNote (EXIF tag 0x927c) may corrupt during EXIF rewrite: its absolute internal offsets break unless the converter copies it as an opaque blob. | Regenerated Thumbnail regenerated; AVIF HDR color-encoding fields default to sRGB (CICP 1/13/6) unless source had HDR data |
| JPG → TIFF | Preserved EXIF, XMP, IPTC, ICC profile | Dropped MakerNote may corrupt during EXIF rewrite (see JPG → WEBP note). | Regenerated Embedded thumbnail regenerated; lossy data lands in a lossless container |
EXIF (written into PNG's eXIf chunk on output), XMP, IPTC, ICC profile
MakerNote may corrupt during EXIF rewrite (see JPG → WEBP note).
Embedded thumbnail regenerated; PNG output gets fresh chunks
EXIF, XMP, IPTC, ICC profile
MakerNote (EXIF tag 0x927c) may corrupt during EXIF rewrite: its absolute internal offsets break unless the converter copies it as an opaque blob.
Thumbnail regenerated as a fresh WEBP-style preview
EXIF, XMP, IPTC, ICC profile
MakerNote (EXIF tag 0x927c) may corrupt during EXIF rewrite: its absolute internal offsets break unless the converter copies it as an opaque blob.
Thumbnail regenerated; AVIF HDR color-encoding fields default to sRGB (CICP 1/13/6) unless source had HDR data
EXIF, XMP, IPTC, ICC profile
MakerNote may corrupt during EXIF rewrite (see JPG → WEBP note).

What is a JPG file?
JPG (JPEG) is a lossy compressed image format built for small file sizes and wide compatibility. It's great for photos and fast sharing, but it doesn't support transparency and can introduce compression artifacts.
How to open a JPG file?
JPG files open in virtually every operating system, browser, and photo viewer by default. If you need transparency or lossless edits, convert your JPG to PNG, WEBP, AVIF, or TIFF using the converter above.
Tools like GIMP or Adobe Photoshop can edit JPGs and export to other formats when needed.
Browse JPG converters by target
Each pair has its own page with target-specific encode notes, file-size expectations, and metadata behavior.
EXIF, XMP, ICC profile carry across; output is lossless from this point forward.
Standard EXIF and copyright fields survive; expect 25–35% file-size savings.
Cleanest metadata path: EXIF, XMP, ICC profile all carry across.
EXIF, XMP, and ICC profile carry across; lossy data lands in a lossless container.
