How to Convert SVG to PNG — Scale Vector Graphics to Any Size

SVG vs PNG

SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) — Mathematical descriptions of shapes. Infinitely scalable without quality loss. Small file size for simple graphics.

PNG (Portable Network Graphics) — Pixel-based raster images. Fixed resolution. Larger files but universally supported.

When to Convert SVG to PNG

• Social media platforms that do not support SVG uploads
• Email clients that may not render SVG
• Software or websites that require raster images
• Creating specific resolution versions of a vector logo
• Generating favicons from SVG logos

How to Convert

1. Upload your SVG file
2. Choose the output scale (1x, 2x, 3x, or 4x)
3. The SVG is rendered at the chosen scale
4. Download the PNG output

Choosing the Right Scale

Scale	Use Case	Example (100x100 SVG)
1x	Standard screens	100 x 100 px
2x	Retina/HiDPI screens	200 x 200 px
3x	High-density mobile	300 x 300 px
4x	Print or large format	400 x 400 px

Tips

• Convert at the largest size you will need — you can always scale down later
• SVG to PNG is a one-way process. Keep the original SVG
• Transparent backgrounds are preserved in PNG output
• For icons, 2x is usually sufficient for sharp display on modern screens
