โ FAQ
Q. Why should I use WebP?
A. WebP is 25-35% smaller than JPG at the same quality. Great for website speed.
Q. Which format supports transparency?
A. PNG and WebP support transparency. JPG does not support transparency.
Q. Does converting JPG to PNG improve image quality?
A. No. Data already lost during JPG compression cannot be recovered by converting to PNG. However, the image will be saved without further quality loss going forward.
Q. When should I use BMP format?
A. BMP is an uncompressed bitmap format that produces very large files. It is only recommended for legacy software compatibility requirements.
Q. Does format conversion change image dimensions?
A. No, the pixel dimensions remain the same. However, file size will change depending on the target format. For example, converting PNG to JPG often reduces file size significantly.
Q. What happens when I convert an animated GIF to another format?
A. Converting an animated GIF to JPG or PNG saves only the first frame as a static image. To preserve animation, keep the GIF format or consider animated WebP.
