SVG to PNG on ToolSugar does this in your browser, so the file is not uploaded. Pick the original size or a width from 512 to 4096 pixels, then choose a transparent or white background. [Open SVG to PNG](https://toolsugar.com/tools/svg-to-png) ## Convert SVG to PNG in four steps The height follows the proportions of the SVG, so you only set the width. 1. Add an SVG file. 2. Choose the width: original size, 512, 1024, 2048 or 4096 pixels. 3. Choose a transparent or white background. 4. Press Convert to PNG, check the preview and download the PNG. ## How wide should the PNG be An SVG is a set of shapes with no fixed pixel count, so you decide the size when you convert. A PNG cannot be enlarged later without going soft. Choose the largest size you may need. 512 pixels suits an app icon or a small web image. 1024 and 2048 suit slides and documents. 4096 suits print. The longest side of the result can reach 8192 pixels at most. ## Transparent or white background A transparent PNG lets the page or slide show through the empty parts of the drawing. A white one is safer when you do not know what background the image will sit on. ## Why text or pictures go missing The SVG is drawn as an image, and an image cannot load outside files. A font that is not installed on your computer is swapped for another, and a linked picture may not appear. Fix this in the drawing tool before you export. Convert the text to outlines or paths, and embed any pictures inside the SVG. ## Opening SVG files from other people The tool draws the SVG as a picture and never runs scripts inside it. That is the same way a browser treats an SVG used as an image, so a file from a stranger is not run as a program. ## Questions ### What is the largest PNG I can make? The longest side can be 8192 pixels. A wide SVG at 4096 pixels wide stays well within that. ### Why choose PNG instead of keeping the SVG? Some apps, forms and social sites accept raster images only. A PNG also looks the same everywhere, with no font surprises. ### My SVG has no width or height. Will it convert? It can, if it has a viewBox. The viewBox gives the drawing its proportions. Without either one, the tool cannot size it and shows an error.
