SVG to PNG converter
Vector graphics scale infinitely but plenty of tools only accept raster images. Set the exact output size — including sharp multiples for retina displays — and export a PNG.
How to use the svg to png converter
- Choose an SVG file.
- Set the width and height, or use the 1×/2×/4× shortcuts for higher-resolution exports.
- Add a background colour if you need one, since SVGs are usually transparent, then download.
How it works
An SVG describes shapes mathematically rather than as a fixed grid of pixels, which is why it looks sharp at any size. Converting to PNG bakes it down to a specific pixel grid at the size you choose, which is necessary for anything that only accepts raster formats — most CMS platforms, older design tools, and any place expecting a plain image file.
Exporting at 2× or 4× the display size is standard practice for retina and other high-density screens, since it gives the browser or app more pixels to work with than it strictly needs, keeping edges crisp rather than slightly soft.
Common questions
Why does my exported PNG look blank?
Some SVGs reference external stylesheets or fonts that don't load once the file is opened outside its original context. Self-contained SVGs with inline styles convert most reliably.
What size should I export a logo at?
Export at the largest size you might ever need — you can always resize a large PNG down, but never back up without losing quality.
