When JPG is a better output
JPG is usually a good choice for photographs because it can produce smaller files than PNG. It does not support transparency, so transparent PNG areas need to be filled with a background colour during conversion.
For logos, screenshots, diagrams or images with sharp text, PNG may retain cleaner edges. Converting those graphics to JPG can introduce compression artifacts, especially at lower quality settings.
Choose the background colour deliberately when transparency is present. White is common for documents and marketplaces, while a colour matched to the destination design can avoid visible boxes around the converted image.

Transparency needs a background when you make a JPG
JPG has no transparent-pixel channel, so transparent PNG areas must become a colour. Choose the background colour intentionally if the image contains logos, cut-outs or icons.
- White works for many documents, but match the destination design when possible.
- Expect some compression around sharp edges because JPG is lossy.
- Keep the PNG original if you may need transparency again.
