Which image format (PNG, JPEG, WEBP) should be selected for export?

Route: Usage Tips - [ Which image format (PNG, JPEG, WEBP) should be selected for export? ]

Choose the Image Format According to Your Business Requirements

If your business has a specific requirement for the image format, please select the corresponding format as required. For example, some label printing workflows explicitly require the PNG format, and in such cases, you can only export and download the labels in PNG format.

In addition, if you choose to export in PNG format for batch export tasks, it is recommended to split your data into smaller batches for export. For instance, split 10,000 labels into 10 batches with 1,000 labels exported per batch. For detailed splitting methods, click to view: How to Split Large Datasets for Batch Label Export or Printing.

This is because each PNG image has a large file size. Exporting a large batch of PNG images will consume extensive memory resources, which is likely to cause export failures due to insufficient browser memory.


Recommended: JPEG Format for Large Batch Export & Download

If there are no explicit business requirements for the image format and no need for image transparency, DoingLabel recommend using the JPEG format. JPEG images feature a small file size and consume little browser memory during large batch exports, making them ideal for mass image export tasks.

Moreover, the quality of JPEG images is adjustable. By lowering the image quality appropriately, you can further reduce the JPEG file size and achieve a much higher export efficiency.


Recommended: PNG Format for Small Batch Export & Download

Although PNG images have a larger file size, they offer lossless high quality and will not suffer from quality degradation after repeated editing and saving. When exporting a small number of PNG images, only a small amount of memory resources will be consumed, and export failures are highly unlikely to occur.

Therefore, PNG format is recommended for small batch label exports.


PNG or WEBP Format (for Transparent Background Needs)

PNG and WEBP formats support transparent backgrounds. You may select either format if you need transparent backgrounds for your labels.

Even so, if you proceed with a large batch export in PNG or WEBP format, it is still recommended to split your data into smaller batches for export.


Not Recommended: WEBP Format for Large Batch Export

WEBP is a next-generation image format that combines high image quality with an extremely small file size. However, it has a critical drawback: WEBP image generation is considerably slow. Exporting a large batch of labels in WEBP format will take an excessive amount of time, so this format is not recommended for mass export tasks.
