SVG to PNG Converter - Render at Any Resolution
Rasterise a vector file to PNG at any size you choose, with transparency intact. Because the source is vector there is no upper limit on sharpness, so render at 2x or 4x for retina screens. Runs in your browser.
Convert your scalable vector graphics to png format with perfect transparency and zero server uploads.
Works entirely in your browser. Fast and private.
Rasterising vector: the one conversion with no quality ceiling
An SVG does not contain pixels. It contains instructions, a description of shapes, curves, fills and strokes in mathematical terms. Rendering it to PNG executes those instructions at whatever pixel dimensions you ask for, which makes this the one image conversion where enlarging costs you nothing. A logo rendered at 4000 pixels wide is exactly as crisp as the same logo at 200, because both were drawn from the same geometry rather than resampled from each other.
That property is what makes the workflow useful. Render at 2x or 3x the display size and the result stays sharp on retina and high-DPI screens where a 1x asset looks soft. Render at print resolution and the same source file serves a poster. The vector original remains the master, and each raster output is generated fresh at the size it is needed.
You need a PNG at all because plenty of places still will not take SVG. Email clients are the main one, as most strip or refuse to render it. Many social platforms reject vector uploads, as do some marketplaces, older content management systems, office software and print workflows. PNG is the safe universal answer, and unlike JPEG it preserves the transparency that logos and icons depend on.
Conversion runs in your browser, rendering the SVG to a canvas and exporting the pixels, so brand assets and client logos never leave your machine. There is no size cap beyond your device's memory, and no watermark on the output.
How to convert SVG to PNG
- Upload the SVG. Or paste the markup if that is easier.
- Set the output dimensions. Decide the display size first, then multiply. 2x is the practical minimum for anything on screen today; 3x or 4x for a hero asset.
- Render and download. Transparency is preserved in the PNG.
Keep the SVG as your master and generate PNGs from it as needed, rather than the other way around, since a raster file cannot be enlarged again without softening. Minifying the source first with the SVG optimizer is worthwhile if you are also shipping the vector. For a browser tab icon specifically, the favicon generator produces the right sizes directly.
Frequently asked questions
Does enlarging an SVG lose quality?
No. The SVG stores geometry rather than pixels, so rendering at 4000px is exactly as crisp as rendering at 200px. This is the one conversion with no upper quality limit.
What size should I render at?
At least 2x the display size for screens, so it stays sharp on retina and high-DPI displays. 3x or 4x for a hero image or anything that may be viewed large.
Is transparency preserved?
Yes. PNG supports an alpha channel, so transparent areas in the SVG stay transparent. Use PNG rather than JPEG for logos and icons for exactly this reason.
Why do I need a PNG when SVG is smaller?
Because many places will not accept SVG: most email clients, several social platforms, some marketplaces, older content management systems, office software and print workflows. PNG is the universally accepted fallback.
Can I convert a PNG back to SVG?
Not meaningfully. Going from geometry to pixels discards the geometry, so keep the SVG as your master file and render PNGs from it as needed.
Are my files uploaded?
No. The SVG is rendered to a canvas in your browser and exported locally.
🔎 Verify it yourself: nothing uploads
Don’t take our word for it. Open your browser’s DevTools (F12 → Network tab), then run this tool on any image. You’ll see no upload request at all — your file never leaves this tab. You can even turn off Wi‑Fi once the page has loaded and keep working. Every tool on this site works the same way — all processing happens on your device.
