SVG to JPG
Turn an SVG into a JPEG at whatever resolution you need — 1×, 2×, 4×, or an exact pixel width — without uploading it. Transparent areas become white, and we say so when it happens rather than letting you find out later. Free, no account, no email.
Frequently asked questions
- Does my file get uploaded?
- No. The drawing is rendered by your own browser and the JPEG is built on your device. Nothing is sent anywhere.
- What happens to transparency?
- It becomes white, because the JPEG format has no way to store it — that is true of every JPEG converter, not just this one. What differs is that we check the drawing you actually gave us and tell you when it happened, with a link to SVG to PNG, which keeps transparency. A transparent logo converted to JPEG comes back with a white rectangle behind it, and the usual way to discover that is to place it on a coloured page.
- Why can I choose the output size?
- Because it costs nothing. An SVG is a set of instructions rather than a grid of pixels, so your browser re-draws it at whatever size you ask for instead of enlarging a small picture — measured, a drawing rasterised at 4× is as sharp as the same drawing rendered natively at that size. Pick the size the thing you are feeding actually wants.
- My SVG has no width or height. What size do I get?
- The size in its viewBox — the size the drawing was made at. A browser reports such a file as 300 pixels wide regardless of its contents, so a converter that trusts that number silently gives you a 300-pixel image of much larger artwork. We read the viewBox, and the size shown on screen is the size of the file you get.
- Is JPEG the right format for a vector drawing?
- Usually not. JPEG was designed for photographs, and the flat colour and hard edges typical of vector art are its worst case — at lower quality settings you will see blocking around edges and text. Use it when something downstream demands a JPEG. For anything else, SVG to PNG is lossless and normally produces a smaller file for this kind of image.
- My SVG links to an image on another site. Will it be included?
- No, and we tell you before you convert, listing the addresses involved. We never fetch artwork an SVG points at: a file you were sent should not be able to make your browser contact a server named inside it. The rest of the drawing converts correctly. Embed the artwork in the SVG on export if you need it included.
- What about fonts and animation?
- Text is drawn with the fonts available to your browser, so a font that exists only on the designer's machine will be substituted — convert text to outlines in your design tool if it must look exact. An animated SVG is captured as a still frame.
