- 1Upload or paste your SVG file — drag it into the drop zone or switch to the Paste tab and enter raw SVG markup.
- 2Choose a scale — 1× exports at the SVG's natural size, 2× doubles it for HiDPI screens, 4× is ideal for print, or enter a custom pixel width.
- 3Click Convert — the SVG is rendered onto a Canvas element in your browser at the chosen dimensions.
- 4Download the PNG — a lossless PNG is exported from the Canvas and saved directly to your device.
SVG vs PNG — When to Use Each
SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) is ideal for logos, icons, and illustrations that need to look sharp at any size. PNG is a raster format best suited for sharing on platforms that don't support SVG — social media, email clients, presentation tools, and most image editors. Converting to PNG at a high scale (2× or 4×) gives you the best of both: vector-quality sharpness at a fixed resolution.
Tips for Better SVG to PNG Conversions
Export at 2× for screens
Use 2× scale for website images. It keeps file sizes manageable while looking sharp on Retina and HiDPI displays.
Use 4× for print
Print requires at least 300 DPI. Export at 4× and scale the PNG to your target print size in your design software.
Inline external assets
Embed fonts and images as Base64 inside your SVG before converting. External URLs may be blocked by browser security.
Set a viewBox in your SVG
SVGs without a viewBox may not scale correctly. Make sure your SVG has viewBox="0 0 W H" for predictable output.
Custom width for exact sizes
Need a 1200×630 Open Graph image from an SVG? Use the Custom option and enter 1200 — height is calculated automatically.
Use PNG for social sharing
Most social platforms (Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook) do not render SVG. Convert to PNG before uploading to ensure your image displays correctly.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the SVG to PNG conversion work?
Your SVG is rendered onto an HTML Canvas element at the chosen output size, then exported as a PNG using the browser's built-in Canvas API. Nothing is sent to a server — the entire process happens locally in your browser tab.
Will my SVG files be uploaded or stored?
No. All processing happens entirely in your browser. Your SVG file never leaves your device and is never sent to any server.
What scale should I choose?
1× exports at the SVG's natural pixel size (as defined by its width/height or viewBox). 2× doubles the resolution — ideal for Retina/HiDPI screens. 4× is suitable for print or large display use. Use Custom to set an exact pixel width.
The output looks blurry — what should I do?
Choose a higher scale (2× or 4×) or enter a large custom width. PNG is a raster format, so exporting at a larger size preserves more detail when the image is scaled down for display.
My SVG uses web fonts or external images — will they render?
External resources (remote fonts, linked images) may not load correctly due to browser security (CORS). Inline fonts and embedded Base64 images will render fine. For best results, use self-contained SVGs.
What is the maximum output size?
The tool supports custom widths up to 8,000 px. Very large canvases may be limited by your browser's memory; if conversion fails, try a smaller size.
Can I convert an SVG that has no width or height attributes?
Yes. The tool reads the viewBox attribute to determine natural dimensions. If no viewBox is set either, it defaults to 512×512 px.
