Animation frames will be lost

WEBP supports animation, but TGA does not. Only the first frame (or a representative frame) will be preserved. If you need animation, consider converting to WebP or GIF instead.

Some metadata may not survive

Your WEBP file may contain EXIF, XMP, ICC metadata. TGA has limited or no support for these metadata types. Location data (GPS), camera settings, and color profiles may be stripped during conversion.

What Happens When You Convert WEBP to TGA

Your WEBP image is decoded into raw pixel data, then re-encoded as TGA.

1

Your WEBP file is decoded — the compressed/stored pixel data is expanded into raw RGBA (with alpha channel) pixels

2

Pixels are re-encoded using no compression (raw pixel storage)

3

Metadata (EXIF, ICC profiles) is transferred where TGA supports it

4

The TGA file is saved and ready for download
