Why convert SVG to JPG
When a vector graphic has to go somewhere that only takes photos, such as a form, an email or a printing service, JPG is the safest choice. Transparent areas become white.
SVG is SVG, a vector format: shapes described as text, sharp at any size; JPG is JPEG, the photo format every camera, phone, website and program reads.
What changes
- The vector drawing becomes a grid of pixels at the size you pick (the long side, in pixels); pick a larger size for print.
- JPG has no transparency: transparent areas become white.
- Photo metadata such as camera details and GPS location is not copied to the new file.
Nothing is uploaded
Your pictures are converted by your own browser and saved straight back to your device. There is no sign-up, watermark or daily limit, and you can convert up to five files at once.
How this works
Web Workers can't draw SVG, so this page draws your SVG with the browser's own SVG engine (the same one that shows it on websites), at the size you chose, through an image element, where scripts and external files are blocked. The pixels are then encoded as JPEG by the browser's own encoder (canvas convertToBlob) at the chosen quality, on a white background in a Web Worker. Nothing is uploaded.
Frequently asked
Will the picture lose quality?
At the default quality of 92 the difference is not visible; choose 85 or 75 for smaller files.
Are my images uploaded?
No. The conversion runs in your browser on this device; nothing is sent to a server.
Can I convert several files at once?
Yes, up to five at a time. Several results can be downloaded one by one or together as a ZIP.
What happens to transparent backgrounds?
JPG can't store transparency, so transparent areas are filled with white. Convert to PNG to keep them.
Which size should I pick?
1024 pixels on the long side suits slides and documents; 2048 or 4096 for print or large screens. 'Original' uses the size written in the SVG.
