When you need a PNG instead of an SVG
SVG is the better master format, but some places only accept pixels: social media uploads, app icons, email signatures, older office software and many marketplaces. Rendering the SVG at the final pixel size gives a crisper PNG than resizing a small bitmap, because every edge is drawn fresh from the vector shapes.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert SVG to PNG?
Choose your SVG, set the PNG width you need, and download. The SVG is rendered by your browser at exactly that size, so the PNG is sharp rather than upscaled.
Can I export a transparent PNG?
Yes. Transparent background is on by default. Untick it to fill the background with any color.
What size should I export?
Use the size the PNG will be displayed at, or twice that for high-density screens. Because SVG is a vector format you can export up to 8192 pixels on the longest side without losing sharpness.
Why does my text look different in the PNG?
If the SVG uses a font that is not installed on your device and not converted to outlines, the browser substitutes another font. Convert text to outlines in your design tool before exporting the SVG.
Is my SVG uploaded?
No. Rendering happens in your browser. The SVG is loaded as an image, so scripts inside it are not run and external files are not fetched.
