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 PCX Sources

Inspect PCX header for palette and bit-depth to anticipate RGB expansion effects
Convert problematic RLE-compressed PCX files first to ensure clean decoding
Normalize image dimensions to avoid unexpected resampling in batch jobs
Replace palette-transparent indices with your intended background color before converting
Group PCX files by similar color profiles or bit depth to use consistent export parameters

Optimize JPG Targets

Choose JPEG quality based on final use: 85% for web, 95% for near-lossless proofs
Enable or disable chroma subsampling depending on color-detail needs to trade size for sharpness
Embed an sRGB ICC profile when destination is the web to ensure consistent display
Use progressive JPEGs for faster perceived load times on image-heavy pages
Test compression on complex gradients to avoid banding introduced by 8-bit conversion

Workflow Integration

Automate batch rules: separate PCX scanned art from line art to select quality presets
Validate converted JPGs in your CMS preview to confirm color and cropping behaviors
When moving assets to editors like Photoshop, keep original PCX files for re-editing
If metadata matters, extract PCX headers first and merge with JPGs using metadata tools
Schedule large batches during low-memory periods to prevent browser slowdowns

Verification & Safety

Compare source and output on a calibrated monitor to detect subtle palette shifts
Keep a master archive of original PCX files before lossy JPEG export
Check flattened edges where transparency was present to avoid unwanted halos
Use checksum or file counts to confirm batch completeness after downloads
Process sensitive images locally and delete temporary caches after batch completion

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.
