SVG to PNG Converter

Paste SVG code and export it as a PNG at any resolution

What is it and how does it work?

An SVG to PNG converter takes SVG code or a vector file and renders it into a PNG raster image at whatever resolution you choose. SVG is a vector format — described by maths, so it scales to any size without losing sharpness — but plenty of places do not accept it: many social platforms, document editors, email clients and older tools only handle raster formats like PNG. Converting lets you keep the crisp, scalable original while producing a flat image you can use anywhere a PNG is expected.

The crucial control is the export resolution, because that is the one thing rasterising decides forever. An SVG has no fixed pixel size, so when you convert you pick how many pixels wide and tall the PNG should be — and a higher resolution gives a sharper result, especially for retina screens or print, at the cost of a larger file. Exporting at too small a size produces a blurry PNG that you cannot fix later, so it is best to render at the size you will actually use or larger. This tool does the conversion in your browser, so your SVG is never uploaded.

Common use cases

• Using a logo where SVG is not allowed: export an SVG logo as a PNG for a platform that only accepts raster images.
• Creating a high-resolution image: render an SVG icon at 2x or 3x size for sharp display on retina screens.
• Preparing for print or documents: convert a vector graphic into a PNG at the pixel size a document or printer needs.

Frequently asked questions

Why convert SVG to PNG at all?

Because many places do not accept SVG. Social media, email clients, some document editors and older software only handle raster formats like PNG. Converting gives you a flat image that works everywhere, while you keep the SVG as the editable, scalable master.

What resolution should I export at?

Render at the size you will actually display the image, or larger. Because PNG is fixed-resolution, exporting too small gives a blurry result you cannot sharpen later. For retina screens, exporting at 2x the display size keeps it crisp; for print, follow the pixel dimensions the document requires.

Will I lose quality converting to PNG?

You lose the infinite scalability of the vector — a PNG is fixed pixels, so it cannot be enlarged beyond its export size without blurring. At the resolution you export, however, the PNG looks sharp. Keep the original SVG so you can re-export at a different size whenever needed.

Does PNG keep transparency?

Yes. PNG supports a transparent background, so an SVG with no background colour exports as a PNG with transparency preserved — useful for logos and icons that need to sit on any colour. If you need a solid background, set one before exporting.
