PNG to SVG Converter

Trace simple PNG graphics and icons into downloadable SVG markup.

Best for simple graphics: Photographs, gradients, shadows and detailed images can create very large SVG files and will not become clean editable vector paths.

Upload a PNG to begin local tracing.

Introduction

About PNG to SVG Converter

PNG to SVG Converter creates a vector-style SVG approximation from simple PNG graphics, flat icons, pixel art and small logos. Upload a PNG and the tool reads its pixels locally, reduces the working dimensions when necessary, groups horizontal runs of matching colors and writes those runs as SVG rectangles. The result preserves hard-edged, limited-color artwork particularly well and can be previewed before downloading. It is important to understand the limitation: photographs, gradients, shadows, antialiased illustrations and highly detailed images may create large SVG files and will not become clean editable vector paths. This browser tool is therefore best for simple graphics rather than photographic conversion or professional logo tracing. A color-simplification control lets you reduce channel precision, which can merge visually similar colors and keep the output more manageable. The generated markup is available for copying and can be downloaded as an .svg file. Image reading, tracing, preview and download generation happen completely on your device with canvas and JavaScript. Toolexa never uploads or permanently stores your PNG. The responsive preview and clear limitation notice make it easy to decide whether the traced result is suitable before using it in a website or design workflow.

FAQ

PNG to SVG Converter FAQs

Does this create editable vector paths?

It creates grouped colored SVG rectangles, not smooth Bézier paths used by professional tracing software.

Which images work best?

Small flat icons, pixel art and limited-color graphics with hard edges work best.

Why are photographs not recommended?

Photographs contain many colors and details, producing very large SVGs without useful vector simplification.

What does color simplification do?

It groups nearby channel values to reduce the number of distinct colors and SVG elements.

Is the PNG uploaded?

No. Pixel analysis and SVG generation run locally in your browser.
