About AVIF images
AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) is a modern image format that delivers excellent compression and quality. It is ideal for web photos when you need smaller files than JPEG or WebP with broad browser support.
About PNG images
PNG (Portable Network Graphics) uses lossless compression and supports transparency with an alpha channel. It is the preferred format for logos, icons, screenshots, and graphics where sharp edges and transparent backgrounds are essential.
AVIF — source format guide
What is AVIF?
AVIF is a modern raster image format based on the AV1 codec. It typically delivers smaller files than JPEG or WebP at similar visual quality, supports HDR, wide color gamuts, and transparency, and is supported in all major browsers.
When was AVIF invented?
AVIF was finalized in 2019 as part of the AV1 video codec ecosystem developed by the Alliance for Open Media. It brings AV1 compression to still images and is increasingly adopted for modern web delivery.
What is AVIF used for?
- High-efficiency web images and responsive picture elements
- Photography where bandwidth and storage matter
- Replacing large JPEG or PNG assets on performance-focused sites
- Next-generation image delivery alongside WebP fallbacks
Software that can open AVIF files
Best practices for AVIF
- Use AVIF for web photos when you can provide JPG or PNG fallbacks for older clients.
- Keep quality between 50–80 for photos; very high settings rarely justify the extra bytes.
- Test output on target browsers before replacing all site assets with AVIF.
- Prefer AVIF over JPEG when optimizing Core Web Vitals and Largest Contentful Paint.
PNG — output format guide
What is PNG?
PNG is a lossless raster image format that preserves every pixel exactly as encoded. It supports up to 16 bits per channel, an alpha transparency channel, and is ideal for graphics, screenshots, and images where sharp edges and transparent backgrounds matter.
When was PNG invented?
PNG was created in 1996 as a patent-free replacement for GIF, developed by an Internet Engineering Task Force working group. It was designed to support lossless compression, full-color images, and an alpha channel for transparency.
What is PNG used for?
- Logos, icons, and UI elements with transparent backgrounds
- Screenshots and technical diagrams
- Images requiring pixel-perfect reproduction
- Game assets and digital illustrations
- Charts, infographics, and images with text overlays
Software that can open PNG files
Best practices for PNG
- Use PNG-8 for simple graphics with few colors to reduce file size; use PNG-24 or PNG-32 when you need full color or alpha transparency.
- Run PNG files through optimization tools (e.g., pngcrush, optipng) to reduce file size without quality loss.
- Avoid PNG for large photographs — JPG or WebP will produce significantly smaller files.
- Use indexed color mode when your image has a limited palette of 256 colors or fewer.
- Export at the exact dimensions needed; scaling down large PNGs in the browser wastes bandwidth.
AVIF vs PNG — format comparison
AVIF can handle photos with transparency more efficiently than PNG, while PNG remains better for lossless graphics and universal desktop compatibility.
When to choose PNG over AVIF
Converting AVIF to PNG is useful when you need to optimize images for a specific platform or use case. Whether you are preparing photos for a website, reducing file sizes for faster loading, or switching to a format with different features like transparency or better compression, ConvertPort handles the conversion instantly while preserving as much quality as possible.
Best practices for converting AVIF to PNG
Follow these guidelines to get the best results when converting AVIF images to PNG:
- Start with the highest quality AVIF source file available — converting a low-quality image cannot restore lost detail.
- Choose PNG when it fits your use case: JPG for photos and small file sizes, PNG for transparency and sharp graphics, WebP for modern web optimization.
- Resize images to the dimensions you actually need before or during conversion to avoid unnecessarily large output files.
- Review the converted PNG file at full size before publishing or sharing to confirm quality meets your expectations.
