Examples

1. Converting Web Graphics for Print

Graphic Designer
Background
A designer downloaded web assets in WebP format but needs to import them into a print layout tool that only accepts PNG or TIFF.
Problem
The design software fails to import the WebP files, halting the project workflow.
How to Use
Upload the WebP file and set the quality to 100 to ensure maximum fidelity for print.
Example Config
quality: 100
Outcome
A high-quality PNG file that is fully compatible with the design software, preserving all original transparency.

2. Optimizing Assets for Compatibility

Background
A developer needs to share UI icons with a team member who uses an older operating system that lacks native WebP support.
Problem
The team member cannot view the icons, causing communication delays.
How to Use
Upload the WebP icon and use the default quality setting to generate a standard PNG.
Outcome
A universally readable PNG icon that the team member can open on any device.
