What is an Image to SVG Converter?

An Image to SVG converter is an online tool that transforms raster images (PNG, JPG) into Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) format. Raster images are made of pixels and lose quality when scaled, while SVG files are vector-based and can scale infinitely without quality loss.

Converting images to SVG is useful when you need scalable graphics for web design, icons, logos, or illustrations. SVG files are also typically smaller in file size for simple graphics and can be edited with code. Our free Image to SVG converter works entirely in your browser, ensuring your files never leave your device and maintaining complete privacy.

Important: This tool uses a pixel-based conversion approach, which works best with simple images, icons, logos, and graphics with limited colors. Complex photographs may not convert well and may result in large file sizes. For best results, use this tool with simple graphics rather than detailed photos.

How to Convert Image to SVG

1

Upload Your Image

Click the upload area or drag and drop your PNG or JPG image file directly into the converter. The tool accepts image files up to 10MB in size. Once uploaded, the image will be displayed in the preview.

2

Adjust Detail Level

Choose the detail level (low, medium, or high) based on your needs. Higher detail produces more accurate SVGs but larger file sizes. Low detail works well for simple icons and is faster to process. The conversion happens automatically.

3

Preview and Download

Compare the original image with the generated SVG preview. Check that the conversion meets your requirements. When satisfied, click "Download SVG" to save your converted file. The conversion happens instantly in your browser.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Image to SVG conversion secure?

Yes, our Image to SVG converter is completely secure. All processing happens entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript. Your files are never uploaded to any server, ensuring complete privacy and security. The conversion uses standard web APIs (Canvas API) that are built into modern browsers.

What types of images work best?

This tool works best with simple images, icons, logos, and graphics with limited colors. Complex photographs may not convert well and can result in very large SVG files. For best results, use simple graphics rather than detailed photos.

What detail level should I use?

Detail level depends on your image complexity. Use 'low' for simple icons and logos (faster, smaller files). Use 'medium' for graphics with moderate detail. Use 'high' for more complex images (slower, larger files but more accurate). Start with 'medium' and adjust based on results.

Does it work offline?

Yes, once the page is loaded, the converter works fully offline. All conversion logic runs in your browser, so you don't need an internet connection to convert images to SVG. This makes it perfect for working with sensitive files or in environments with limited connectivity.

What file sizes are supported?

The converter supports image files up to 10MB in size. This limit ensures fast processing and prevents browser memory issues. For larger files, consider resizing your images first using our image resizer tool.

Can I convert multiple files at once?

Currently, the tool processes one file at a time. This ensures optimal performance and prevents browser memory issues. You can convert multiple files sequentially by resetting the tool after each conversion.
