About PALM to AVIF Conversion
Short answer: yes, you can convert PALM to AVIF online for free, and quality is well preserved with the right settings. Just upload your .palm file to CocoConvert, pick AVIF as the output, and click Convert. The whole process takes seconds.
Now for the details. PALM is a widely used file format. AVIF is the newest image format based on AV1 video codec, delivering exceptional compression — up to 50% smaller than JPEG at the same quality. Converting between these two formats lets you convert between formats quickly.
Your PALM file is decoded and re-encoded as AVIF. Converting PALM to AVIF maintains high quality with CocoConvert's optimised encoder settings.
CocoConvert runs entirely online — no software to install, no account to create. Your files are encrypted during upload (TLS), processed on isolated servers in Germany, and permanently deleted after 24 hours. It works in Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, and all mobile browsers.
Need to convert more than one file? Free users can do 5 per hour. Pro gets 100 per hour with files up to 5 GB each.
