Which frame does the tool export?

The tool exports the first frame of the GIF. Browsers render the first frame when the image loads synchronously, so that is what is drawn to the canvas.

Can I export other frames?

This tool only extracts the first frame. Extracting arbitrary frames from an animated GIF requires a full GIF decoder, which is beyond the scope of the Canvas API.

Is transparency preserved?

GIFs use index-based transparency. The PNG export preserves any transparent areas from the first frame since PNG supports full alpha transparency.

GIF to PNG

Extract the first frame of a GIF and export it as a PNG image via canvas.

The GIF to PNG converter loads an uploaded GIF as an image source, draws the first frame onto an HTML canvas, and exports the result as a PNG. This is useful when you need a static still from an animated GIF, or when a tool requires a non-animated image format. All processing is done client-side.
