Convert JPG-ORIGINAL to PNG

Understanding jpg-original and png file formats

JPG-Original is a variant of the standard JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) image format, commonly used for digital photos and web images. The 'original' suffix often indicates an unedited or high-quality version of a JPEG file, but it still uses lossy compression, which can reduce image quality to save space.

PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is a popular raster image format known for its lossless compression and support for transparency. PNG files are ideal for images requiring high quality and transparent backgrounds, such as logos and graphics.
