Replacing PNG assets with smaller WebP files for web delivery. Works well for screenshots, UI assets, and diagrams. WebP supports an alpha channel, so transparent PNGs stay transparent in the output.
About PNG and WEBP
image/png
PNG is a raster-graphics file-format that supports lossless data compression. It supports palette-based images, grayscale, and full-color non-palette-based RGB or RGBA images. Its most notable feature is support for transparency (alpha channel).
image/webp
Image format employing both lossy and lossless compression. It is currently developed by Google.
Conversion Notes
Image conversion from PNG to WEBP preserves colour information and dimensions. If WEBP uses lossy compression (such as JPEG), compression artefacts appear at lower quality settings — use quality 85+ to minimise visible loss. Transparency (alpha channel) is preserved in formats that support it; if the target format does not support transparency, transparent areas are filled with white by default.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. WebP supports an alpha channel and the converter preserves it.
