What file formats do you support?

We support over 100 file formats including images (JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, TIFF), documents (PDF, DOC, DOCX, TXT), videos (MP4, AVI, MOV), audio (MP3, WAV, FLAC), and many more specialized formats.

Yes, absolutely. We use enterprise-grade encryption for all file transfers. Your files are automatically deleted from our servers after conversion, and we never store or access your personal data.

What is the maximum file size?

The maximum file size for free users is 100MB per file. Premium users can convert files up to 1GB. For larger files, we recommend our batch processing feature.

How long does conversion take?

Most files convert in under 30 seconds. The exact time depends on file size and format complexity. Our advanced algorithms ensure the fastest possible conversion while maintaining quality.

Can I convert multiple files at once?

Yes! Our batch processing feature allows you to upload and convert up to 50 files simultaneously. This is perfect for bulk conversions and saves significant time.

Do I need to create an account?

No account is required for basic conversions. However, creating a free account gives you access to batch processing, file history, and priority support.

Tips and Best Practices

Optimize your conversion workflow with technical recommendations.

Prepare JPG Source

Inspect JPG compression level and avoid converting highly compressed images if possible
If color-critical, ensure the JPG includes an ICC profile before conversion
Crop or resize JPG to final dimensions to prevent upscaling in PICT
Run basic denoise on JPG if artifacts will be visible in high-resolution PICT output
Export a TIFF from your editor when needing higher fidelity before converting to PICT

PICT Output Handling

Expect larger PICT files; allocate disk space accordingly
Choose uncompressed PICT when target app requires raw pixel access
Use compressed bitmap options only if target Mac app supports that PICT variant
Store original JPG separately to retain the compact, transport-friendly copy
When archiving, package PICTs with a manifest of original JPG metadata

Workflow Integration

Test PICT in the specific Mac application used for layout or print before batch runs
When passing to designers, indicate that PICT is a raster snapshot of the JPG
If the downstream pipeline expects EXIF, export metadata to sidecar files alongside PICTs
Use scripts to automate JPG to PICT batches and include verification checksums
Prefer converting only files destined for legacy systems; use modern formats for web delivery

Verification & Performance

Validate color by opening converted PICT in the target Mac app to confirm ICC mapping
Process batches of 20-50 files to balance memory use and speed in-browser
Monitor memory consumption when converting many high-megapixel JPGs to avoid crashes
If privacy is required, confirm all conversion happens client-side and remove temp files
Download converted PICTs immediately and verify a sample on your target device

Fast Processing

Close unused tabs for maximum throughput.

Client-Side Privacy

No media leaves your device.

Broad Compatibility

Output files work across all operating systems.

Pro Tip

For batch conversions, process in groups of 20-50 files to optimize memory usage and avoid browser slowdowns.
