SVG is a drawing made of shapes rather than pixels, which is why logos and icons are often supplied that way: it stays sharp at any size. Plenty of places will not take it, though: Word and PowerPoint in older versions, social media profile pictures, email signatures, many website builders, online forms and print shops ask for a PNG. This page draws the SVG at the size you choose and saves it as a PNG, keeping a transparent background unless you pick one.
The SVG is drawn by your browser itself, the same engine that shows SVGs on the web, so it comes out as it looks in the browser. It is free to use, with no account and no upload limit, and it runs entirely in your browser: nothing is uploaded, and while the page stays open, a feature you have already used keeps working offline.
- Will the PNG be blurry?
- No. The SVG is laid out at the PNG's full size before it is drawn, so lines and text are drawn sharp at that size rather than a small picture being stretched. Choose the size you need now: a PNG is pixels, so making it bigger later does blur it.
- Is the transparent background kept?
- Yes, with Background set to Transparent anything the SVG does not paint stays see-through in the PNG. Choose White for places that show transparency as black, such as some email programs and older Office versions.
- What size will the PNG be at 1x?
- The size the SVG gives itself in its width and height, converted to pixels at 96 per inch, so a width of 1in is 96 pixels and 10mm is about 38. With no width or height, its viewBox numbers are used, and with neither, 300 by 150 pixels, as a browser would show it. The largest PNG made is 16,384 pixels on a side and 100 million pixels in all; a bigger size is reduced to fit, and the page says so.
- Why is some text or a picture inside my SVG missing?
- For safety, a browser drawing an SVG as a picture does not fetch anything outside the file: a photo linked by its web address, or a web font it loads, is not drawn, and text falls back to a font on your device. Pictures and fonts embedded in the SVG are drawn. In a design program, convert text to outlines or embed the images before exporting the SVG. Animations are drawn as their first frame, and scripts in the SVG do not run.
- Can I convert SVG to PNG on an iPhone or Android phone?
- Yes. Open this page in Safari or Chrome, tap the box and pick the SVG from Files or Downloads; save the PNG and it goes to Downloads, or on an iPhone to Files. Very large sizes may be reduced on a phone, which has less memory for one picture.
- Are my SVG files uploaded?
- No. Each SVG is read and drawn in this browser tab on your device, and nothing is sent to this site or anywhere else, so unreleased logos and client artwork stay with you.
To convert PNG, JPG, WebP and other pictures between formats, resize or compress them, use the Image Toolkit. The SVG Optimizer makes an SVG file smaller, and Image to SVG goes the other way, tracing a PNG or JPG into an SVG.
