About SVG files
the web's XML-based vector image format
SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) is the W3C's XML-based vector format: shapes, paths and text are described as code, so the image scales to any size without blur.
Logos, icons, illustrations and charts on websites; every browser displays SVG.
SVG: what conversion changes
Converting SVG redraws shapes.
SVG: settings to change
Before you convert SVG files, you can adjust: Width, Height, Resolution (DPI), Scale fit, Crop position, Never enlarge, Transparent background, Quality, Background, Lossless, Progressive, Convert text to paths, Remove metadata, Crop to content, Auto-orient from EXIF, and Rotate.
Limits of the SVG format
Photos cannot be stored efficiently as vectors, and complex SVGs with filters can look different from one program to another.
Common questions about SVG
Why won't Instagram, WhatsApp or my photo app accept my SVG file? Social and photo apps expect raster pixels, not vector shapes, so the SVG must be rasterised to PNG or JPG first.
Why convert a logo to SVG? Vector shapes scale to any size without blurring, and the file stays tiny compared with a high-resolution PNG.
