# Save a web page as a JPG

> Save any web page as a JPG image. Paste the address, choose the whole page or just the top, and download the file. Free to try, also one request by API.

To save a web page as a JPG, paste its address into CurlShot and press the button. CurlShot opens the page in a real browser and gives you a JPG image of it to download, the whole page or just the first screen. A JPG is small, opens everywhere and can be attached to an email or dropped into a document. With the API you can also ask for PNG or WebP.

## Questions

### How do I convert a web page to a JPG?

Paste the address of the page into CurlShot and press "Take the screenshot". The download is a JPG image of the page.

### Can I choose the quality of the JPG?

With the API, yes. image_quality takes a number from 1 to 100: a lower number makes a smaller file, a higher one a sharper image.

### JPG, PNG or WebP: which should I use?

JPG is the small, universal choice for pages with photos. PNG keeps text and flat colors perfectly sharp and can have a transparent background. WebP is the smallest of the three and is meant for use on websites.

### Is it free?

You can try it on this page without an account. A free account adds a monthly allowance of screenshots and keeps them in one place.
