PNG file guide

Keep crisp graphics and transparent backgrounds

What it stores

PNG stores raster images with lossless compression and supports an alpha channel for transparency.

When to choose it

Use PNG for screenshots, diagrams and interface graphics. Check the pixel dimensions before placing it in a print document.

What to check before converting

A PNG file can be larger than a JPG of a photograph. Browser processing can change metadata and color profiles; lossless compression does not guarantee that every source property is retained.
