What is PNG to JSON Converter?

The PNG to JSON Converter extracts image information from PNG files and outputs it as structured JSON data. The output includes image dimensions, file size, color statistics, and optionally pixel-level data. The tool processes everything in the browser, so your image never leaves your device.

This tool reads your PNG file, renders it to a canvas, and extracts metadata and pixel information into a JSON structure. The output includes width, height, average color values, and optionally the full pixel array. This format is useful for APIs, web applications, and automated image processing.

3

Download or copy

Save the JSON file or copy the data to your clipboard.

Pro Tips
1

The metadata-only output is small and useful for quick image information.

2

Including full pixel data for large images produces very large JSON files.

3

Use the JSON output directly in JavaScript applications without additional parsing.

4

For color analysis only, the statistics object provides averages without the full pixel array.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the image be modified?

No. The tool only reads image data and outputs it as JSON. The original PNG file remains unchanged.

Is my image uploaded to a server?

No. All processing happens in your browser using the Canvas API. The image never leaves your device.

What data is in the JSON?

The output includes width, height, file size, average RGB values, and optionally the full pixel array.

How large will the JSON file be?

The metadata-only output is small. Full pixel data for large images produces very large files.

Can I convert multiple images at once?

Yes. Upload multiple files and the tool generates a separate JSON for each one.
