FROM SOURCE TO CUTOUT

A few details make
all the difference.

Start with the right photo

JPG does not store transparency. Renaming a .jpg file to .png or converting the format alone will not remove its background. Start with the highest-quality original available; PNG export does not restore details already lost through JPEG compression.

Check the important details

Keep the transparent finish selected when exporting PNG. Test the downloaded file over a coloured background: the surrounding area should show through instead of appearing as a white rectangle.

Choose the final finish

Review your cutout in the editor. Choose transparent or a solid background, then export PNG or JPG for your next use.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Good to know.

Why does a converted PNG still have a white background?

PNG supports transparency, but can also contain an opaque white background. You need to remove the backdrop and export with a transparent finish. Choosing a solid white finish will produce a PNG with white pixels behind the subject.

What if an edge or detail is missing?

Compare with the original and try a sharper photo with more contrast around the subject. The tool cannot restore parts cropped out of the source image.
