SVG: what it’s for

SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) describes images as code — shapes, paths, and text that stay razor-sharp at any size. Logos, icons, illustrations, and diagrams belong in SVG: tiny files, editable source, and perfect rendering from favicon to billboard.

Strengths

  • Infinite scaling with zero quality loss at any size
  • Tiny files for logos and icons compared to raster equivalents
  • Editable as text — tweak colors and shapes in any editor
  • Rasterizes to PNG, JPG, or WebP locally at any resolution you need

Honest limits

  • Photos embedded in SVG are just base64 blobs — our PNG-to-SVG wraps or silhouette-traces, it does not truly vectorize artwork
  • Scripts and animations are stripped when rasterizing to PNG/JPG for safety
  • Very complex vectors with filters rasterize slowly at 4K sizes
  • Email clients and some Office versions still refuse SVG — send PNG there

Every tool runs in your browser — files never leave your device. Badges say exactly what each tool does with SVG.

SVG FAQs

Can I convert a PNG logo to a real vector SVG?

Honestly, no tool here performs true artistic vectorization. PNG-to-SVG embeds the image in an SVG wrapper or traces a silhouette — fine for simple shapes, not a redraw of your logo.

How do I use an SVG where only PNG is accepted?

Convert SVG to PNG at 2x or 3x resolution — the vector source rasterizes crisply at any size you pick.

Can I edit SVG code directly?

Yes — the SVG editor lets you modify markup with live preview and downloads the result, all locally in your browser.

Is SVG conversion private?

Yes. Rasterization runs through canvas in your browser; your artwork never uploads.
