Quality reduction ahead

GLTF is lossless, meaning every bit of data is preserved. JPG uses lossy compression — some data is permanently discarded to reduce file size. At high quality settings the difference is usually imperceptible, but the original data cannot be recovered.

Some metadata may not survive

Your GLTF file may contain glTF extras, extensions metadata. JPG has limited or no support for these metadata types. Location data (GPS), camera settings, and color profiles may be stripped during conversion.

What compression artifacts to expect

JPG lossy compression can produce blockiness and mosquito noise around sharp edges. At the high quality settings CocoConvert uses by default, these are usually invisible to the eye. Lower quality settings trade visual fidelity for smaller file sizes.
