Convert SVG to PNG Online Convert SVG vector graphics to PNG raster images at any scale.

What Is SVG to PNG?

An SVG to PNG converter rasterizes vector graphics into pixel-based images. Vector files are XML-based and can scale to any size without quality loss, but many platforms require raster images. This tool renders your graphic to a canvas at your chosen scale factor (1x through 8x), producing crisp, high-resolution PNG output. A 2x scale means a 100x100 viewport becomes a 200x200 pixel PNG — perfect for retina displays.

Why Use SVG to PNG?

• Scale SVGs to any size — 1x through 8x available
• Crisp rendering using the browser SVG engine
• Quick preset buttons for common scales
• Transparent background preserved in PNG output

Common Use Cases

App Icon Generation

Convert SVG icons to PNG at various sizes needed for mobile and desktop applications.

Social Media Assets

Convert vector logos and graphics to PNG for platforms that don't support SVG.

Print Preparation

Rasterize SVGs at high resolution (4x or 8x) for print materials.

Email Graphics

Convert SVG graphics to PNG for email templates since most email clients don't support SVG.

Technical Guide

SVG to PNG conversion works by creating a Blob URL from the vector content, loading it into an Image element, and drawing it onto a canvas at the target dimensions. The source is read as text, wrapped in a Blob with MIME type image/svg+xml, and converted to an object URL. The canvas dimensions are set to the viewport size multiplied by the scale factor. The browser built-in vector rendering engine handles all the complex rendering including paths, transforms, text, gradients, patterns, and filters.

Tips & Best Practices

• 1
  Use 2x scale for retina-ready images
• 2
  Use 4x or higher for print-quality output
• 3
  SVGs with external fonts or images may not render correctly — embed resources first
• 4
  Check the transparent background by looking for the checkerboard pattern in the preview

Frequently Asked Questions

Q What scale should I use?

1x for standard screens, 2x for retina displays, 4x for print. Higher scales produce larger files.

Q Why does my SVG look different as PNG?

External fonts or images may not load. Embed all resources in the SVG for accurate rendering.

Q Is the PNG background transparent?

Yes, transparent areas in the SVG are preserved as transparency in the PNG output.

Q What is the maximum SVG size?

The limit depends on the output dimensions. At 8x scale, a 2000x2000 SVG produces a 16000x16000 PNG.

Q Can I convert SVG animations?

Only a single frame (the initial state) is captured.
