Why convert
Why convert JPG to PNG?
Lossless editing
Every time you save a JPG it re-compresses and loses a little detail. PNG saves are lossless — edit and re-save as many times as you like.
Add transparency later
PNG supports an alpha channel, so once converted you can remove the background in any editor.
Sharper text and edges
Screenshots and graphics with text stay crisp in PNG — JPG's lossy compression softens sharp edges.
