How to Make a Transparent PNG

Three steps, and nothing is uploaded.

  1. Drop, paste or choose a JPG, PNG, WebP or GIF. The background color is read from the edges and removed at once.

  2. Click any area to remove that color too, or bring back a part. Set the tolerance, keep soft edges and trim a halo.

  3. Save a transparent PNG or WebP at full size, cropped to the subject if you like, ready for any design.

    Click a color to remove it too, or switch to Bring back and click a part to restore it. Undo goes back one click at a time.

  3. Soft edges without a halo

    Turn on Everywhere to clear the background color inside letters and shapes as well, the way a logo needs it.

  5. Glows, smoke and ink lines

Guide: Make an Image Transparent, Cleanly

Five short tips for a clean transparent PNG.

Start with a plain background

Logos, icons, scans, illustrations and product shots on one color come out best. For a photo with a detailed background, use the AI background remover.

Start with a plain background

Set the tolerance

Raise the tolerance for JPG noise, shadows or paper texture; lower it when parts of the subject are close to the background color.

Logos and lettering

Turn on Everywhere so the inside of letters such as O, A and B turns transparent too. Click any leftover area to remove it.

Logos and lettering

Clean edges

Keep Soft edges on for smooth curves. A one-pixel shrink cuts away a thin halo left by a compressed JPG.

Check it on any color

Switch the preview to white, black or your own color to see how the PNG will look, then crop to the subject and download.
