About WebP Quality:

WebP uses lossy compression at all quality levels (unlike PNG which is lossless)
100% quality means "best possible WebP", not "identical to PNG"
85% quality typically reduces file size by 25-35% with minimal visual difference
Lower quality creates smaller files but may show compression artifacts
WebP preserves transparency from PNG images

FAQ

Common questions 3 questions

Does WebP support PNG's transparency?

Yes, WebP supports an alpha channel (transparency) just like PNG, but its compression algorithms are more effective, leading to a smaller file size for the same visual outcome.

Will this conversion be lossless?

You can choose to use the lossless WebP format, meaning the resulting file is smaller than the PNG but retains 100% of the image quality.

Why is this better than PNG for the web?

It offers up to 26% better compression than PNG while preserving the lossless quality and transparency, making it a direct upgrade for web graphics.
