SVG to PNG Converter

Turn a scalable SVG into a PNG raster image at whatever size you need.

When a vector won't do

SVG is brilliant for logos and icons because it stays razor-sharp at any size. The trouble is that plenty of places do not accept it — some social platforms, older editors, document tools and upload forms want a plain raster. Converting to PNG gives you a normal image that opens everywhere, at the exact pixel size you choose.

Because you pick the output dimensions, you can export the same icon large for a header or small for a thumbnail, each one crisp because it is rendered fresh from the vector rather than scaled up from a smaller copy.

Keeping the transparency

SVGs usually have a transparent background, and PNG can hold onto that, so your icon will not come out sitting on a white box. If you would rather have a solid background, that is a choice — but for logos and icons, transparency is almost always what you want.

How to convert an SVG to PNG

  1. Add your SVG file.
  2. Set the output width and height you need.
  3. Download the rendered PNG.

Vector to pixels, at the size you choose

An SVG is a set of drawing instructions, so it stays sharp at any size. A PNG is a fixed grid of pixels. Converting means choosing the size to render at — and because you are rasterising, exporting larger than you need is safer than exporting too small and enlarging later.

The conversion matters because plenty of places still refuse SVG: some email clients, older software, marketplace uploads and social platforms all want a raster image.

SVG to PNG Converter FAQ

Why convert an SVG to PNG at all?

Many email clients, marketplaces and older programs do not accept SVG files.

What size should I export?

At least the size you will display it, and ideally double for high-density screens.

Does the PNG keep transparency?

Yes, transparent areas of the SVG stay transparent in the PNG.

What size should I export?

Whatever the destination needs. Since it renders from the vector each time, every size comes out sharp — large for headers, small for icons.

Does the PNG keep the transparent background?

Yes. The transparency from the SVG is preserved, so the image is not stuck on a white box.

Why convert an SVG if it already scales perfectly?

Because many apps and forms do not accept SVG at all. A PNG is the universally accepted raster version.
