Convert between image formats in your browser. Nine formats can be read, five can be written, and the tool only offers what it can genuinely produce.

Up to 200 files at a time, 200 MB per file. These limits protect your browser from running out of memory, they are not commercial restrictions.

This image is being read and converted by your own browser. It is never uploaded.

How to convert an image

  1. Step 1: Add your images by dropping them, choosing them, or pasting from the clipboard.

  2. Step 2: Pick the output format. Only formats a codec can actually produce are listed.

  3. Step 3: Adjust quality, size or compression effort if the format supports them.

  4. Step 4: Convert, then download the results individually or as a ZIP.

When this is useful

Most conversions happen because something will not open a file: a website that rejects HEIC, a printer that wants TIFF, an editor that has never heard of AVIF.

The other common reason is size. Moving a photograph from PNG to WebP or AVIF often cuts the file to a fraction of the original with no visible difference.

Every format shown here is backed by a real codec. Formats that can be read but not written, such as HEIC and GIF, are never offered as an output.

Questions

Which formats can be converted?

PNG, JPEG, WebP, AVIF, GIF, BMP, ICO, TIFF and HEIC can be read. PNG, JPEG, WebP, AVIF and TIFF can be written. GIF, BMP, ICO and HEIC can be opened but not produced, so they are never offered as an output.

Why can I not convert to HEIC?

Writing HEIC needs an HEVC encoder, which is a much larger piece of software and carries patent licensing obligations. Reading HEIC is supported, which is what almost everyone needs.

Are the conversions real?

Yes, and they are verified. After every conversion the produced file is checked against the signature of the format it claims to be. A file that does not match is never offered for download.

Does it work offline?

Once the page and the codec you need have loaded, the conversion itself needs no network. The codec for each format is downloaded once, the first time you use that format.
