About Pixcon

Pixcon is a free online image converter that needs no account. It converts images and PDF files between formats and can resize, crop and optimize images.

What Pixcon can do

Input formats
JPG, JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, HEIC, HEIF, ICO and PDF.
Output formats
JPG, JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, ICO and PDF.
HEIC and HEIF
Input only. HEIC and HEIF are not offered as output formats in "Convert to:".
Resize and crop
Width and height values of up to 4096 px. Not available for ICO and PDF output.
Optimization
"Optimize images" is on by default and compresses JPG, WebP and AVIF output more strongly, which usually gives smaller files.
Transparency
Kept in PNG, WebP, AVIF and ICO. Filled with white in JPG.
PDF to image
Each page becomes a separate image. A multi-page PDF is returned as one ZIP archive.
Image to PDF
One single-page PDF per image. The page fits within an A4 sheet.
ICO output
One icon per file, at a standard size from 16 to 256 px.

You can add several files at once, and Pixcon converts each file separately with the same settings. "Download all" saves the finished files as one ZIP archive.

How Pixcon processes your files

Pixcon converts files on its servers, not in your browser. Files are uploaded and downloaded over HTTPS.

After a successful conversion, Pixcon deletes the uploaded original and keeps only the converted file. Uploaded images are not used for any other purpose.

Only the browser that uploaded your files can list, download or delete them, and only from the same IP address.

When your files are deleted

Pixcon deletes files automatically about 24 hours after upload. An hourly job removes all files older than 24 hours.

You can delete files earlier with the remove button next to a file or with "Remove all". The files disappear from your list immediately.

The Privacy Policy describes where uploaded files are stored and how long analytics data and logs are kept.

Limits for a single file

File size
Up to 50 MB per file.
Image dimensions
Up to 20,000 px per side and 100 megapixels in total. Larger images are rejected.
PDF pages
Rendered at 150 DPI, or lower for very large pages, on a white background.
Long PDFs
Very long or complex PDFs can be refused if rendering them would take too long.

If a file cannot be converted, for example because it is damaged, Pixcon marks it with an error message.

Free, no account, no watermarks

  • Pixcon is free to use.
  • No account, email address or sign-up is needed.
  • Pixcon does not add watermarks or branding to converted images.
