Converting PNG to AVIF: what to know
PNG is converted to AVIF to make website images as small as possible: an AVIF of the same picture is usually many times smaller than a PNG. AVIF keeps transparency, so it suits logos and cut-out product photos as well. Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Safari 16 and newer support it.
By default AVIF compression is lossy, at quality 50 out of 100, which is high for this format. For screenshots, diagrams and graphics with small text, raise the quality or turn on lossless mode in the settings. For sending to people PNG is still the safer choice: older programs don't open AVIF.
PNG or AVIF: which to choose?
PNG (Portable Network Graphics)
PNG stores images without quality loss and supports transparency, but photos in PNG are large.
Best for screenshots, logos, diagrams and any images with transparency or sharp text.
AVIF (AV1 Image File Format)
AVIF is a next-generation format based on the AV1 video codec with very high compression and HDR support.
Best for maximum compression of photos for the web when modern browsers are the target.
What happens when converting PNG to AVIF
AVIF uses lossy compression. The default quality is 50 out of 100: lower values make the file smaller, higher values keep more detail.
EXIF metadata, including GPS location, is not copied, and the photo orientation is applied to the pixels.
PNG files up to 256 MB are supported; the actual limit also depends on the free memory of your device.
