Rename the file if desired, then click “Save”. Your file has been converted.
Use Online Converter on Computer, Smartphone or Tablet
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/3/3f/Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-10-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Convert-Pictures- To-JPEG-Step-10-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/3/3f/Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-10- Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-10-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:348,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :551,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Choose an online converter. This method works on any device that can access the web, including tablets and smartphones. Search for the keyword “convert XXX to jpg online” (where “XXX” is the name of the format of the image to be converted to jpg) to survey the tool. Sites like Online-Convert [1] X Research Source contain a list of all the file formats it can convert to.
- Make sure the site you choose is capable of handling your image format. [2] X Research Source Some image formats, such as .RAW files, are difficult to convert online because of their large size.
- If using a mobile device, connect to Wi-Fi instead of using mobile data because the image size is quite large.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/1/1e/Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-11-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Convert-Pictures- To-JPEG-Step-11-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/1/1e/Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-11- Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-11-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:348,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :551,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Upload photos. In the converter, find the “Choose file” button and locate the file you want to convert. Note that many tools have an upload file size limit.
- Read through the terms and conditions of use before uploading photos.
- Some converters allow URLs to be entered, which is handy if you’ve already uploaded your photos to another online service.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/84/Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-12-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Convert-Pictures- To-JPEG-Step-12-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/84/Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-12- Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-12-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:348,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :551,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Verify the converter is ready to convert the image to JPEG format. Most tools have a drop-down menu or tap for you to choose “JPEG” or “.JPG” (these are equivalent options). Some tools allow you to adjust the file size and quality right here on this screen.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/c/cd/Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-13-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Convert-Pictures- To-JPEG-Step-13-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/c/cd/Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-13- Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-13-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:348,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :551,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}

The image will be downloaded automatically to the default Downloads folder or you are asked to choose a location to save the image. After completing the process, your photo has been converted to JPEG format.
Using Preview on Mac
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/1/1c/Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-1-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Convert-Pictures- To-JPEG-Step-1-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/1/1c/Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-1- Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-1-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:346,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :548,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Open the image in Preview. [3] X Research Source Preview is a pre-installed application on the Mac that opens most image formats. Ctrl + click the photo and then select “Open With”. Select “Preview.”
- If you encounter an image format that can’t be opened or looks wrong in the software, try using an online converter or Gimp
- This method only applies to images stored in the computer. If you haven’t downloaded the image yet, you must download it first.

{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/2/25/Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-18-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Convert-Pictures- To-JPEG-Step-18-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/2/25/Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-18- Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-18-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:348,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :551,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Click “Export”. A dialog box appears asking you to choose a name for the new file and a save location. Find the folder that’s easy to remember and name it if you want. The file already has a .jpg extension, so you should keep that part (the extension is not case sensitive). Click “Save” to complete the conversion.
Change File Extension
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/c/cd/Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-19-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Convert-Pictures- To-JPEG-Step-19-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/c/cd/Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-19- Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Convert-Pictures-To-JPEG-Step-19-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:348,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :551,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Find out where this approach can be applied. If your file is in JPEG format but the extension is incorrect, for example, mistyped “.JGP” instead of “.JPG”, you can use this method. This is not technically possible to “convert” the image to JPEG format.
- If your image is not in JPEG format, changing the extension may damage the file. Please refer to other methods if you want to convert images to JPEG format.
- File extensions are not case sensitive. .JPG and .jpg are the same.
- Before proceeding, note down the original format of the file so that it can be converted back if necessary.
