No second round of JPEG compression
JPEG loses a little detail every time it's saved again, which is why a photo that's been edited and re-saved a few times starts to show blocky edges. Our converter doesn't decode and re-save your JPEG. It places the original file inside the HTML page byte for byte, so the picture in the page is exactly the one you uploaded.
How to convert JPEG to HTML
- Upload the .jpeg file using the box above.
- Select HTML as the output format.
- Convert and download, then open the .html file in your browser.
Conversion runs on our servers and takes a moment. The result is one HTML file with the image in it, centred and scaled to the window with nothing around it.
What the HTML page does and doesn't contain
The page holds your image and the minimum markup needed to show it. There's no caption, frame or branding added. It also doesn't contain the words or layout from the picture as text: a JPEG of a document stays a picture of a document. Pages that promise to turn any image into editable HTML are a different kind of tool, usually OCR or design-to-code.
If the conversion fails
A file that isn't really an image, or one that's damaged, gets a plain reason such as "This isn't a valid image" instead of an HTML page with a broken picture. A JPEG that opens in your photo viewer will convert. File names with odd characters are escaped, so they can't break the page or add code to it.
JPEG or JPG, and other options
JPEG and JPG are the same format with two spellings, and JPG to HTML works the same way. For a lossless copy of the photo, use JPEG to PNG, and for something to print, JPEG to PDF. The JPEG converter lists all JPEG conversions.
