PNG to SVG Conversion FAQ
How do I convert PNG to SVG without losing image quality?
+
Upload your PNG file, then our converter applies format-aware quality optimization for SVG output. For lossless formats (PNG, TIFF, BMP) we preserve every pixel; for lossy formats (JPG, WebP) you can tune the quality factor before download.
Can a PNG photo really be converted into a clean SVG?
+
Only up to a point, and it is worth setting expectations first. Tracing turns pixel regions into paths, which works well for logos, line art and flat-colour graphics with clear boundaries. A photograph has no such boundaries, so the trace yields either a crude posterised approximation or an SVG with tens of thousands of paths that is larger and slower to render than the original. SVG cannot represent a photograph — tracing one produces either a crude approximation or a file larger than the original raster.
How does text inside the SVG behave?
+
In an SVG, text is real text — selectable, searchable and re-styleable, and it needs the font to be available or embedded to render as intended. Converting away from SVG turns that text into pixels or into document text depending on the target; converting towards SVG only produces real text if the source had a text layer to begin with.
What about EXIF metadata when converting PNG to SVG?
+
In most conversions, camera EXIF fields such as the camera model and GPS position are not carried into the SVG. There is no setting on this page to keep or remove metadata, so check the result with a metadata viewer if it matters.
Can I batch-convert hundreds of PNG files to SVG at once?
+
Several files in one job need a paid plan. Free use is one file per conversion, one conversion an hour. On a paid plan you can add several files to one job, then download each result on its own or all of them in one ZIP.
What resolution and dimensions will my SVG file have?
+
Default behaviour is 1:1 — your SVG output has the same pixel dimensions as the source PNG. Use a separate /resize-image/ step after conversion if you need to downscale or upscale as part of the workflow.
How small can the SVG file get without visible artifacts?
+
For JPG / WebP, quality 75-85 typically gets the file 60-80% smaller than the source PNG with no visible difference at normal viewing distance. For lossless targets (PNG, TIFF), expect smaller savings — usually 5-30% via better deflate / LZW compression.
Are my PNG files private during conversion?
+
Yes. Uploaded PNG files are processed on our own servers and are never viewed or shared. Uploads and converted images are deleted automatically about 24 hours after conversion. The full privacy policy is at /privacy/.
