WebP is a modern image format developed by Google for websites. It provides excellent compression, making sites load faster, but many desktop applications and older programs don't know how to open it.

Should I choose PNG or JPG?

If the WebP image has a transparent background (like a logo or icon), you must choose PNG to keep the transparency intact. For standard photographs, JPG might be smaller.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is the converted PNG file size larger than the WebP?

WebP was specifically designed to be heavily compressed for website loading speeds, often using lossy algorithms. PNG is a strictly lossless format. When you convert the image, the PNG must store the uncompressed pixel grid faithfully, which naturally results in a larger file size.

Will my WebP's transparent background be kept?

Yes. Unlike JPG, the PNG format fully supports alpha channels. Your transparent WebP graphics, logos, and cutouts will remain perfectly transparent as PNGs.

Can PhotoQuill handle batch conversions?

Absolutely. Because processing is handled locally by your device's CPU rather than a central server, you can drag and drop dozens of WebP files simultaneously and download them all in a single ZIP file without waiting in line.
