How to convert an image to SVG

  1. 1. Choose your image

    Open a PNG, JPG, WebP or HEIC file up to 30 MB. Tracing starts straight away and the preview appears next to the original. Your image stays in your browser.

  2. 2. Match the image type

    Use Logo or artwork for flat graphics, Photo for pictures, and Black and white for line art, signatures and scans. Then set Colours and Detail: lower values give a simpler, smaller SVG.

  3. 3. Check and download

    Compare the preview with the original at full size, then select Download SVG or copy the SVG code to paste into a web page.

What tracing can and cannot do

An SVG describes shapes, not pixels, so it stays sharp at any size. Tracing rebuilds your image from flat coloured shapes: clean logos, icons and drawings convert well, soft gradients become bands of colour, and text becomes outlines that can no longer be retyped. It cannot recover detail that a small or blurry source never had.

Keeping the file small

Every colour and speck becomes a shape. If the SVG is larger than you expected, reduce Colours to the number the artwork really uses, lower Detail, or choose Straight edges. Images above 2 megapixels are traced at a reduced size, which does not limit how far the SVG can be scaled.

Backgrounds and next steps

Transparent PNGs stay transparent. For a logo on a plain backdrop, tick Make the background transparent. To cut a subject out of a photo first, use Background remover. Open the SVG in Inkscape, Illustrator or Figma to recolour or tidy individual shapes.

Questions & answers

Is the full SVG download free?

Yes. You download the complete SVG with no watermark, credits, sign-up or daily limit. The tracing runs in your browser, so there is no server cost to pass on.

Which images convert well to SVG?

Logos, icons, line drawings, signatures and flat illustrations with clear edges. Photos can be traced too, but they become a stylised picture made of many shapes and the file is usually larger than the original.

Can I edit the text in the SVG afterwards?

No. Tracing follows the outlines it sees, so letters become shapes. You can recolour, resize and reshape them in Inkscape, Illustrator or Figma, but not retype them.

How do I get a transparent background?

A PNG that is already transparent stays transparent. For a logo on a plain background, tick Make the background transparent: the area connected to the image corners is removed, while enclosed areas of the same colour are kept.

Is my image uploaded?

No. The converter is VTracer, an open-source tracing engine that runs inside your browser. Your image is never sent to a server.

Is it really free?

Yes. Every Feemag tool is free, with no sign-up, no watermarks added by us and no daily limits.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. Your files are processed by your own browser on your device and never uploaded to a server. Processing speed depends on your device and file size.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes: in any modern browser (Chrome, Safari, Edge or Firefox) on iPhone, Android, Mac, Windows and Linux.
