Convert SVG to PNG, Entirely in Your Browser
This tool never sends your image anywhere — the conversion happens locally using your browser's built-in Canvas API. Your SVG is read directly from your device, rendered onto a canvas, and re-exported as a PNG, all without a network request. That makes it fast, private, and usable offline once the page has loaded.
SVG and PNG are fundamentally different kinds of image. SVG is a vector format — it describes shapes with math, so it scales to any size with no loss of quality. PNG is a raster format: a fixed grid of pixels at one specific resolution. Converting from SVG to PNG means picking a resolution and "baking in" the image at that size, which is exactly what most non-vector tools, platforms, and file uploads expect.
What resolution will the converted PNG be?
This tool uses the size your SVG file actually specifies, reading its width and height (or its viewBox as a fallback) directly from the file rather than trusting the browser's default. That matters because we tested what browsers do left to their own devices: an SVG with only a viewBox — no explicit width or height, which is common for icons and logos exported from design tools — gets shrunk to fit inside a default box of just 300×150 pixels, regardless of how large the icon was designed. This tool reads the file directly and renders it at its real intended size instead.
When should I convert SVG to PNG?
Reach for PNG when you need a fixed-size raster image rather than a scalable vector — for email attachments, social media uploads, word processors, and any image editor or platform that doesn't accept SVG directly. It's also useful for "flattening" an SVG so it renders identically everywhere, since SVG effects and fonts can sometimes look slightly different across browsers.
Does converting to PNG preserve transparency?
Yes. If your SVG has transparent or partially transparent areas, they carry over to the PNG exactly, since PNG supports a full alpha channel just like SVG does. There's no background color added unless your SVG explicitly draws one.
Is there a file size or dimension limit?
Not from this tool specifically — since conversion happens in your own browser rather than on a server, the practical limit is your device's available memory rather than any limit we impose. Very large or highly detailed SVGs may take a moment longer to render, but there's no artificial cap on file size or dimensions.
