Know before you start

Important limitations

  • The frame increases both output dimensions rather than covering edge pixels.
  • JPG cannot store transparent borders; the selected border is always rendered as a solid color.
  • JPG output is flattened and re-encoded, so repeated saves can introduce additional compression artifacts.

Common questions

Add Border to JPG FAQ

Does Add Border to JPG upload my image?

No. Decoding, canvas processing, previewing, and export happen in the current browser session.

Does the downloaded file replace the original?

No. The tool creates a separate download; the source file on your device is not modified.

Will metadata remain in the result?

Canvas export normally omits camera EXIF and most ancillary metadata. Keep the original if those records matter.
