About PNG to SVG
Convert PNG images to SVG vector format
What this tool offers, based on how it actually works.
Small files are often done in seconds; larger files and server-side conversions take longer depending on size and current load.
Files travel over HTTPS. Anything uploaded to our servers is removed by an automated cleanup job; some conversions never leave your browser.
We aim to preserve clarity and layout, but results depend on the formats involved. See the notes on this page for what to expect.
Use it straight from your web browser; there is nothing to install.
Desktop, tablet, or mobile—use the same workflow on any device.
Start converting for free with no account. Paid plans raise limits; see the Pricing page.
Three simple steps that fit any workflow.
Drag and drop or browse to add your file. Size and type are checked before it is accepted.
Choose the output format that fits where the file will be used.
Start the conversion and download the result when it is ready.
Jump into common format pairs or switch to a nearby tool when you need it.
Step-by-step instructions for this conversion.
Add your PNG file by dragging it into the upload area or choosing it from your device.
Confirm SVG as the output format and, if offered, adjust quality or size.
Start the conversion and wait for the progress indicator to finish.
Download the SVG file and check it before deleting the original.
Differences between the two formats that affect the result.
Converting a raster picture to SVG is a tracing process, not a lossless conversion. Here it produces a black-and-white trace of the image outline (the image is converted to greyscale and thresholded), so colours and fine gradients are not preserved.

No installs and no sign-in to get started. Your original file is never modified; you download a new converted copy.
This conversion runs on ToolzStack servers: your file is uploaded, converted, and made available for download, then removed by an automated cleanup job. See the Privacy Policy for retention details.

Common answers so you can keep moving.
PNG is a lossless raster format that supports full transparency. It suits screenshots, logos and graphics with sharp edges, but photographs make large PNG files. SVG is a vector format described by shapes and paths, so it scales to any size without blurring.

Make sure the file really is PNG (renaming an extension does not change the format) and that it opens correctly on your device. Password-protected or corrupted files are rejected. If the file is very large, try again with a smaller one.
