Important things to know
Transparency becomes opaque
JPG does not support transparency. Any transparent areas in the PNG will be filled with white (or a background color you specify) in the converted JPG. If you need to keep transparency, stay with PNG.
JPG uses lossy compression
Lower quality settings produce smaller files but reduce image sharpness. For most photos, 80–90% quality is the sweet spot between size and quality.
