Image to SVG Converter
Upload a JPG, PNG, GIF, BMP, or WebP image to convert it to SVG format.
The conversion runs entirely in your browser — your files are never uploaded to a server.
How to Convert an Image to SVG
Upload your image
Click the upload area or drag and drop a file. Supported formats: JPG, JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP, WebP. Maximum file size is 5 MB.Wait for conversion
The tool converts your image to SVG automatically, directly in your browser. A spinner appears while processing. Most images take a few seconds.
Compare the result
The original image and the SVG output appear side by side. Review the SVG to confirm the result before downloading.
Download the SVG
Click Download SVG to save the file to your device. The filename matches your original file with an `.svg` extension.
FAQ
What image formats can I convert to SVG?
The tool accepts JPG, JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP, and WebP files.
Does my image get uploaded to a server?
No. All processing happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your image file never leaves your device and is not stored or transmitted anywhere.
What is the maximum file size?
The tool handles files up to 5 MB.
Why does the tool automatically convert when I upload — is there a settings panel?
No. The tool converts immediately with pre-set high-quality settings. There are no manual options to adjust. This keeps the process as fast and simple as possible.
Why does my SVG look different from the original image?
SVG conversion works by grouping similar-colored pixels into flat-color regions and tracing their boundaries as vector paths. Images with smooth gradients, shadows, or many colors will look simplified or posterized in the SVG output. This is expected behavior for all raster-to-vector conversion tools. The best results come from images with clear edges and limited, distinct colors.
Why is the SVG file larger than the original image?
SVG files represent every color region as a path with coordinate data. For complex images with many color regions, the path data can be larger than the compressed original image. For simple logos and icons, SVG is typically smaller than the equivalent PNG.
Can I edit the SVG after downloading?
Yes. SVG is an XML-based format you can open in Inkscape (free), Adobe Illustrator, Figma, or a text editor to adjust colors, shapes, and paths.
Can I use the converted SVG in WordPress?
Yes. WordPress blocks SVG uploads by default for security reasons, but plugins like Safe SVG enable them. Once enabled, you can upload and use the SVG like any other image.
Does the tool support animated GIF input?
Only the first frame of an animated GIF is processed. The tool does not produce animated SVG output.
What happens with transparent PNG backgrounds
Transparent areas are filled with white before conversion. The SVG will have a white background where the original PNG had transparency. To restore transparency, open the SVG file in a vector editor and remove the background rectangle.
