Tool usage guide
The JPEG to Baseline JPEG Converter allows you to easily transform progressive JPEG images into the standard baseline format, ensuring maximum compatibility across all web browsers, legacy software, and hardware devices.
Background
A client's older CMS was failing to render images that were saved as progressive JPEGs.
Problem
The images appeared as broken icons or failed to load entirely in the legacy dashboard.
How to use
Upload the progressive JPEG, set quality to 90, and convert to baseline.
quality: 90, keepMetadata: trueOutcome
The images were successfully converted to baseline format and now display perfectly in the legacy CMS.
Background
Industrial control panels required specific baseline JPEG formats for UI icons.
Problem
Progressive JPEGs caused the hardware display to flicker or crash during image loading.
How to use
Upload the source images and process them using the default baseline settings.
quality: 85, keepMetadata: falseOutcome
Baseline JPEGs load from top to bottom, while progressive JPEGs load in multiple passes, becoming clearer as they download.
Some older software, specific printer drivers, or legacy web systems only support the baseline format.
You can control the output quality using the quality slider; setting it to 100 preserves maximum detail.
Yes, simply check the 'Keep Metadata' option before starting the conversion.
You can upload JPEG files up to 20MB in size.
The converted baseline JPEGs loaded reliably on the hardware without any display errors.
