使用指南

Convert PNG to transparency-preserving WebP: transparent images often shrink 50-70% (PNG alpha compression is famously poor). Batch, local, zero upload — the first pick for web asset diets.

1. Conversion flow

  1. Drop PNG images (transparent or opaque).
  2. Quality defaults to 90%; push to 80% for extreme sizes.
  3. Compare and download in one click.

2. The transparency size miracle

PNG uses lossless deflate even with alpha — fine for flat screenshots, but gradient/photo PNGs with transparency easily run multi-MB. WebP lossy-with-alpha typically lands at a third of the size at equal visual quality. Batch-converting decorative PNGs to WebP is an immediate site performance win.

3. When not to convert

  • Pixel-perfect assets (medical imaging, technical comparisons) should stay PNG — lossy WebP changes pixel values.
  • Images headed for WebP-blind legacy systems stay PNG or become JPG.

FAQ

Yes. WebP natively supports alpha; transparent PNG areas stay transparent.

Transparent images typically shrink 50-70% (PNG compresses alpha poorly); opaque photos about 25-35%.
