What the PNG to SVG converter does

Scalable Vector Output

SVG files scale to any size without losing quality, making them ideal for logos, icons, and graphics used across web, print, and mobile.

Adjustable Threshold

Fine-tune the black-and-white threshold from 0 to 255 to control exactly how much detail is preserved in the traced output.

Custom Output Color

Choose any fill color for your SVG paths using the color picker. Match your brand colors or design requirements exactly.

Multiple Input Formats

Accepts PNG, JPG, JPEG, BMP, WebP, and TIFF files. Any standard raster image from your camera, phone, or design app will work.

Fast Processing

Advanced potrace-based tracing engine converts your image to clean vector paths in seconds, even for complex images.

Frequently asked questions

How does the PNG to SVG converter work?

Upload your raster image and the tool converts it to grayscale, applies a threshold to create a high-contrast bitmap, then uses potrace to trace the edges into clean vector paths. The result is a scalable SVG file that stays sharp at any size.

What image formats can I convert to SVG?

The converter accepts PNG, JPG, JPEG, BMP, WebP, and TIFF files up to 10MB. Any standard raster image from your camera, phone, screenshot tool, or design app will work.

What does the threshold slider do?

The threshold controls how the image is split into black and white before tracing. A lower value (closer to 0) keeps more dark detail, while a higher value (closer to 255) keeps only the darkest areas. The default of 128 works well for most images. Adjust it to get cleaner lines for logos and text, or more detail for photos.

Can I change the color of the SVG output?

Yes. Use the color picker in the settings panel to choose any fill color for your traced SVG paths. The default is black, but you can pick any hex color to match your brand or design needs.

Will my SVG look exactly like the original image?

SVG tracing works best with high-contrast images like logos, icons, line art, signatures, and text. Photographs will be simplified into a stylized black-and-white vector representation. For best results with photos, adjust the threshold to capture the detail level you want.

What is the maximum file size I can upload?

The maximum upload size is 10MB per image. Most PNG, JPG, and BMP files from screenshots, logos, and scanned documents fit well within this limit. If your file is larger, try compressing it first using our image compressor.

Is my image data private and secure?

Yes. Your uploaded image is processed on our server and the source file is deleted immediately after conversion. The generated SVG is available for download and cleaned up shortly after. We do not store, analyze, or share any of your image content.

Why would I convert a PNG to SVG?

SVG files are vector-based, meaning they scale to any size without losing quality. This makes them ideal for logos, icons, and graphics used across web, print, and mobile. SVGs are also smaller in file size for simple graphics and can be styled with CSS or animated with JavaScript.
