Understand browser-side processing, no unnecessary uploads, and how privacy-first file tools reduce exposure.
Workflow guidance
Format conversion is useful when another app, website, or upload form rejects the original file. Pick the output format based on what the destination supports rather than converting everything to the same format.
Keep a copy of the original when changing between lossy and transparency-friendly formats. JPG cannot preserve transparent pixels, while WebP and PNG support different tradeoffs for quality and file size.
