Image to SVG Converter

Trace a PNG, JPG, or WebP into a genuine vector SVG — free, in your browser, with the result available as a downloadable .svg file and as copyable SVG code. Built for logos, icons, and line art: flat shapes trace into clean, infinitely-scalable paths. Photographs are a poor fit for vector tracing and produce very large files — the page tells you so rather than hiding it.

How to convert an image to SVG with Allypdf

  1. Drop in a logo, icon, or line-art image (PNG, JPG, WebP).
  2. Tune the trace with three sliders: number of colors, smoothing, and detail.
  3. Trace — a background worker in your browser rebuilds the image as vector paths.
  4. Download the .svg file, or copy the SVG code straight into your HTML or design tool.

Why "no upload" matters here

Images that need vectorizing are almost always brand assets: a logo that only exists as a PNG, a client's icon set, artwork for print. Uploading unreleased branding to a random tracing service is a needless leak risk. Allypdf traces with ImageTracer.js running inside your own browser — the artwork never leaves your device, and there is no server copy of a brand that hasn't launched yet.

Common uses

  • Recover a scalable vector from a logo that only survives as a PNG or JPG.
  • Vectorize an icon or silhouette so it can be recolored and scaled in Figma, Illustrator, or Inkscape.
  • Copy traced SVG markup directly into a website instead of shipping another image file.
  • Turn line-art sketches into editable vector paths for print work.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert a PNG to SVG for free?

Drop the PNG onto Allypdf's Image to SVG tool, adjust the colors and detail sliders if needed, and click Trace — you get a .svg download and a code panel with a copy button, free and without a watermark. Tracing runs in your browser, so the image is never uploaded.

Does this produce real vector paths or just wrap the bitmap?

Real vector paths. The tracer analyzes color regions and rebuilds them as SVG path elements you can edit, recolor, and scale infinitely in any vector editor. No bitmap is embedded.

Why did my photo produce a huge SVG?

Vector tracing approximates each color region with a path, and photographs contain thousands of tiny regions — so the SVG becomes enormous and looks posterized. That is a limitation of tracing itself: it is best for logos and line art, and photos will produce very large files. The page detects photo-like input and warns you before you rely on the result.

What do the three sliders do?

Colors sets how many flat color layers the image is split into (fewer = cleaner and smaller). Smoothing blurs slightly before tracing to suppress noise and JPEG artifacts. Detail controls how tightly paths follow edges and how small a speck still gets traced.

Is my artwork uploaded anywhere?

No. The entire trace runs in a background worker inside your browser — unreleased logos and client artwork never leave your device.
