JPG cannot store transparency, so transparent areas are filled with white.

How to use JPEG to JPG

  1. Choose JPEG (.jpeg, .jpg) files, or drag them onto the drop area. Each file is checked by its real contents, not just its name.
  2. Adjust the quality if the output is JPG, otherwise leave the defaults.
  3. Press Convert to JPG. Conversion happens in your browser and each result is verified before it is offered.
  4. Check the preview and the before and after file sizes, and read any notes.
  5. Download each file, or take several at once as a ZIP.

About this tool

JPEG and JPG are the same format; the shorter extension exists only because older Windows versions required three-letter extensions. Many upload forms nevertheless insist on .jpg, and this tool gives you exactly that.

Rather than simply renaming the file, it decodes the picture and writes a fresh, standard JPEG. That also normalises files with an EXIF rotation flag so they appear upright everywhere, but it means the image is re-encoded once, which can change the file size slightly. Metadata such as camera details and GPS location is not carried over.

Formats and browser compatibility

Accepted input: JPEG (.jpeg, .jpg).

Accepts files whose contents are JPEG, including .jpeg, .jpg, .jpe and .jfif. A file that only has a .jpeg name but is actually another format is rejected with a clear message.

Works in every current browser.

Practical uses

  • Satisfy a form field that rejects the .jpeg extension.
  • Normalise a batch of photos to one consistent extension.
  • Strip camera and location metadata while exporting.

Tips for better results

  • Raise the quality to 95% or more to minimise re-encoding loss.
  • If you only need a different extension and no re-encoding, you can rename the file yourself; the format is identical.
  • Check the output size afterwards if an upload has a limit.

Frequently asked questions

Is JPEG different from JPG?

No. They are the same format and open in exactly the same programs. Only the extension differs.

Does converting reduce quality?

The image is re-encoded once, so there is a tiny quality cost. Choose a high quality setting to keep it negligible.

Is EXIF data kept?

No. The browser re-draws the picture, so camera, date and GPS metadata are removed, though orientation is applied so the image looks right.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. Everything is processed in your browser on your own device. Nothing is sent to Paul Digital or any other server.
