Convert PNG → WebP

Advanced settings
PNG → WebP
PNG → WebP is the homepage default for PNG. It keeps a web-oriented target while preserving transparency and edge alpha from a still PNG.
Example
A still PNG with a soft transparent outline should keep that alpha in the WebP preview. Semitransparent edges are not flattened.
Limitation
The encoder is the browser WebP encoder. Quality 0.8 is the measured default; it is not a promise that every WebP will be smaller than the PNG.
Questions about PNG → WebP
- Will alpha survive?
- Yes for still PNG sources and WebP or PNG targets. JPEG targets flatten alpha instead.
- What if I need a JPEG instead?
- On the homepage, change the visible target to JPEG and set the flatten background before conversion.
