PNG to SVG
PNG to SVG. Free, no signup, no watermark. Processed securely and deleted within an hour.
This tool needs a server to do its work, so the file is uploaded. It and its result are deleted within an hour.
How to png to svg
- Add your image — Drop it onto the box above, or click to open your file picker. On a phone this opens the camera roll directly.
- Upload and wait — Processing runs on our server and usually takes a few seconds. The page tells you when the result is ready.
- Download the result — Save the file. The download link expires after fifteen minutes, and both files are deleted within an hour.
What this tool does
To convert PNG to SVG, upload your image above. Processing happens on our server because this conversion cannot run in a browser; the file and its result are deleted automatically within one hour. The tool is free, needs no account, and applies no watermark.
What this tool does
This conversion needs software with no browser equivalent, so it runs on our server under a strict retention policy rather than pretending to be something it is not.
Why this one uploads
Most tools on this site run entirely inside your browser, and the pages say so. This one cannot. The work it does needs software that has no browser equivalent — a document engine, an OCR engine or an outbound network connection — so the file travels to our server, is processed there, and comes back to you.
What that means in practice: the file is stored under a random name outside the web root, it is never indexed or shared, the download link is signed and expires after fifteen minutes, and both the input and the output are hard-deleted within one hour by a job that runs every ten minutes. The original filename is erased in the same operation. We keep no copy.
What happens to your file
The upload is validated before anything else touches it: the extension is checked against an allowlist, the actual file type is confirmed from its magic bytes rather than the browser's claim about it, the size is checked against a per-tool cap, and the file is screened for the compression ratios that indicate an archive bomb. A file failing any of those is rejected before processing begins.
What survives is stored under a randomly generated name in a directory outside the web root, so it has no reachable URL. Processing runs in a queue worker. The result is returned through a signed link that expires after fifteen minutes and works once.
Both the input and the output are hard-deleted within one hour by a scheduled job that runs every ten minutes, and the original filename is erased in the same operation. Nothing is retained afterwards, and there is no backup of the temporary directory — it is excluded from backups by design.
What it costs
Nothing. There is no account, no email capture, no free-trial countdown, no watermark on the output and no daily limit. The site is funded by advertising, which sits below the tool and never between an input and its result.
Supported formats
| Format | Accepted | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| JPG | Yes | Lossy; best for photographs. No transparency. |
| JPEG | Yes | Lossy; best for photographs. No transparency. |
| PNG | Yes | Lossless; supports transparency. Larger files than JPEG for photos. |
| WEBP | Yes | Smaller than both JPEG and PNG at similar quality. Supported everywhere current. |
| GIF | Yes | Limited to 256 colours. Only worth using for animation. |
| BMP | Yes | Uncompressed and very large. Convert it to almost anything else. |
| TIFF | Yes | Common in print and scanning workflows. Often multi-page. |
| AVIF | Yes | Smallest of the modern formats. Not decodable in every browser yet. |
| HEIC | Yes | Default on recent iPhones. Decoded to JPEG or PNG before processing. |
| HEIF | Yes | Default on recent iPhones. Decoded to JPEG or PNG before processing. |
| SVG | Yes | Vector, so it scales without loss. Rasterised when converting to a pixel format. |
| ICO | Yes | Windows icon container; holds several sizes in one file. |
File limits
Uploads are capped per tool, and the cap is shown on the upload area. Files above it are rejected before any processing starts. Processing is queued, so a large document may take a few moments — the page polls for the result and offers the download as soon as it is ready.
