What is the difference between AVIF and HEIF?

Both are modern, highly efficient image formats. AVIF is often used for web delivery, while HEIF is widely supported by Apple hardware and software.

Will I lose image quality during conversion?

You can control the quality level using the slider. Setting it to a higher value minimizes quality loss, though it may result in a larger file size.

Can I keep my EXIF data?

Yes, by enabling the 'Keep Metadata' option, the tool will preserve your original EXIF, IPTC, and XMP data.

Does this tool support transparent images?

Yes, ensure the 'Preserve Transparency' checkbox is selected to maintain the alpha channel in your output file.

What is the best compression level to use?

A level of 6 is the default balance. Use lower numbers for faster processing and higher numbers for smaller file sizes.
