How do I convert SVG to PNG online for free?

Drop one SVG into the box and it rasterises straight away — there is no button to press. Make sure PNG is the selected output format, then press Download. Transparency is carried through, nothing is uploaded, and there is no watermark or sign-up.

Is transparency preserved?

Yes. PNG carries a full alpha channel, so transparent regions, partially transparent fills and soft edges in your SVG all survive the conversion intact. That is the main reason to choose PNG over JPG when rasterising a logo or icon.

What resolution will the PNG be?

Whatever pixel size the SVG declares in its own width and height attributes — there is no scale control here. That is the significant limitation of this tool: you get one fixed size, decided by the file rather than by you.

My SVG came out tiny, around 300 by 150 pixels. Why?

Because it has a viewBox but no explicit width and height. With no intrinsic size to read, the browser falls back to a default of roughly 300 by 150. Open the SVG in a text editor and add width and height attributes matching the resolution you want, then convert again.

How do I get a larger PNG from my SVG?

Edit the width and height attributes in the SVG itself before converting. An SVG is plain text, so changing width="64" to width="1024" and the matching height takes seconds in any editor, and because it is a vector the result is perfectly sharp at the larger size.

Why rasterise a vector at all?

Because plenty of places refuse SVG. Social platforms, most video editors, email clients, older desktop software, app store listings and many upload forms accept only raster images. SVG is the better master format; PNG is what you hand over.

Can I convert several SVGs at once?

Not here — this tool takes one file at a time so you can check the result immediately. For a folder of files converted together and returned as a single ZIP, use the all-in-one file converter, which accepts multiple selections.

Does the SVG render exactly as it does in a browser?

Almost always, because the same rendering engine is used. Two exceptions are worth knowing: external fonts referenced by the SVG may not be available, so text can fall back to a different typeface, and externally linked images will not load. Convert text to paths first if typography matters.

SVG to PNG rasterises a vector file into a pixel image with transparency preserved. Drop one SVG and it converts instantly — no upload, no sign-up, no watermark. Useful wherever SVG is refused: social platforms, video editors, email and older software.

The resolution question, answered honestly

This is the first thing to understand, because it is the one thing people expect from an SVG converter and it works differently here. There is no scale or output-size control. The PNG comes out at whatever pixel size the SVG declares in its own width and height attributes.

That has a specific and very common failure mode. An SVG saved with a viewBox butno width and height has no intrinsic size for the browser to read, so it falls back to a default of roughly 300 × 150 pixels. If your icon converted to a surprisingly small PNG, that is why — and nothing on this page can fix it, because the information simply is not in the file.

How to get the size you want

The fix is to edit the SVG, which is easier than it sounds because an SVG is plain text. Open it in any text editor and you will find something like:

Look at the opening <svg> tag. If it has no width or height, add them.
Set them to the pixel size you actually need — width="1024" height="1024" for an app icon, for example. Keep the ratio matching the viewBox or the artwork will distort.
Save and convert again. Because the source is a vector, the larger render is perfectly sharp — you are not upscaling anything.

This is the genuine advantage of starting from a vector: any size is a clean render, not an interpolation. A 2048px PNG from an SVG is as crisp as a 64px one, which is never true when enlarging a raster image.

Why PNG rather than JPG for a vector

Rasterising the same logo two ways.
	PNG	JPG
Transparency	Preserved	Flattened to a solid colour
Sharp edges and flat colour	Exact	Halos and fringing around edges
Text and thin lines	Clean	Smeared by compression
File size for flat artwork	Usually smaller	Often larger, for worse results
Right for	Logos, icons, diagrams, UI	Only when something demands JPEG

For the kind of artwork that lives in an SVG — flat colour, hard edges, lettering — PNG wins on both quality and size. JPEG's compression is tuned for photographic gradients and does visible damage to a crisp logo while producing a bigger file. Use SVG to JPG only when a system insists on JPEG.

Two rendering caveats

The SVG is rendered by the same engine your browser uses for web pages, so it usually looks identical to opening the file in a tab. Two things do not carry across:

Fonts. If the SVG references a typeface by name and that font is not installed or embedded, text falls back to something else — which can change the layout, not just the look. Convert text to paths in your design tool before exporting if typography matters.
External references. Images or resources linked by URL rather than embedded in the file will not load, leaving gaps.

Both are worth checking on the preview before you download, and both are properties of the SVG rather than of the conversion.

SVG to JPG flattens onto a solid background when JPEG is required. Theimage format converter is the same engine with every pair in one place, and the all-in-one file converter handles a whole folder as a ZIP. Once you have a PNG, image resizer changes its dimensions andimage compressor reduces file size — though re-editing the SVG gives a better result than resizing a PNG. For icons specifically, thefavicon generator produces every size a site needs, and thelogo maker creates transparent artwork from scratch.
