If an editor or a document will not open your AVIF image, PNG is the fix. PNG is lossless, supports transparency and is understood by essentially every program, so you can edit, print or publish the picture without compatibility problems.
Edit AVIF images in any program
Image editors are only starting to support AVIF, and design tools or office suites often do not. Converting the file to PNG gives you something you can open right away, place in a presentation, or hand to a designer, without any plugin.
Transparency stays intact
AVIF supports an alpha channel, and PNG does as well. A logo or cut-out with a transparent background keeps its transparency in the PNG. The PNG will be larger than the AVIF, because PNG compresses less aggressively.
Why not simply open AVIF in the browser?
You can view AVIF in a modern browser, but you cannot easily edit it there, drop it into a slide deck or send it to someone whose software does not know the format. Converting to PNG makes the image portable, and keeps the transparent areas if the AVIF had any.
Good to know about AVIF to PNG
Only the first frame of an animated AVIF is converted.
Pick JPG instead if the picture is a photo and you want a smaller file.
The PNG contains no metadata from the original file.

Does AVIF to PNG lose quality?
No further loss is added. PNG stores what the AVIF contains. Detail that AVIF discarded when it was created cannot be recovered.
Can I use the PNG on my website?
