Vector Converter
Rasterize or convert SVG, WMF, EMF and more at any resolution.
About this converter
Vector files describe shapes, paths and text as instructions rather than pixels. SVG is the web's vector format, EPS and PostScript come from print workflows, AI is Illustrator's native format, and WMF and EMF are Windows metafiles. People bring logos, diagrams, charts and print artwork, and the destination decides whether it needs a vector or a raster image.
The converter reads SVG, WMF and EMF and writes the output you choose. Vector targets keep the drawing editable and scalable, while raster targets render it at a pixel size. PDF is offered as a terminal output for sharing and printing, never as an input.
How it works
Choose an output format
Pick the format you want the result in before you add anything. Every file in the queue is converted to that one format, so the choice shapes the whole run.
Add your files
Drop files onto the page or use the file picker. Each file is checked against the formats this tool accepts, and anything that does not match is reported by name.
Download the result
When a conversion finishes, download the converted file. Uploads and results are deleted after 2 hours, so keep your own copy.
Formats you can convert
The vector catalog covers web graphics, print artwork and Windows drawing files. SVG and the Windows metafiles are read here, and the target you choose decides whether the result stays vector or becomes an image.
- SVG — the web's XML vector format for icons and diagrams
- EPS — encapsulated PostScript, produced here for print but not accepted as an input
- PostScript — PostScript files, the print language EPS wraps; not converted here
- Adobe Illustrator (AI) — Adobe Illustrator artwork; not converted here
- Windows Metafile (WMF) — old Windows metafiles, read here but not produced
- Enhanced Metafile (EMF) — enhanced Windows metafiles, read here but not produced
- PDF — a terminal output for sharing and printing, never an input
Quality and what changes
A vector stays sharp at any size because its shapes are instructions, and that property survives only when the target is also vector. Converting SVG to EPS or PDF keeps paths and text, while rendering to PNG or JPEG fixes the drawing at one pixel size and cannot be enlarged without blur. Fonts and effects may be flattened or approximated when the target lacks them, so a complex illustration can change appearance even when the geometry is preserved.
Privacy and limits
Guests can convert files up to 100 megabytes and run 5 conversions per day. A free account raises the limit to 500 megabytes and 25 conversions per day, and paid plans go up to 100 gigabytes.
Files you upload and the results you download are kept only long enough for you to collect them and are deleted after 2 hours. After that window nothing of yours remains on the server.
You do not need an account to convert a file; signing in only raises the size and daily limits.
Questions and answers
Which vector format should I choose?
Use SVG for the web, EPS or PDF for print, and a raster format such as PNG when the image only needs to be viewed at one size. Windows metafiles are read here but never written back; EPS, PostScript and Illustrator files are not converted by this tool.
Can I convert a vector to a larger image?
A raster target is rendered at the pixel dimensions the converter offers, so choose the size you need before converting. A vector target stays resolution-independent and can be scaled later in a drawing program.
Will fonts and effects be preserved?
Paths and geometry are carried into vector targets, but fonts and effects are kept only if the target supports them. A missing font or an unsupported blend mode can be outlined, substituted or flattened, which changes the drawing.
Is PDF produced here?
PDF is available as an output for sharing or printing, but it is not accepted as an input. Document operations belong to a separate product, so this converter only writes PDF from the vector formats listed above.
