Free SVG Converter – Convert JPG or PNG images to SVG files

Raster image file formats
Raster images are image formats and are defined by a series of pixels. Pixels are square blocks of color that create an image when displayed on a computer screen. Commonly used image formats are PNG, JPEG, and GIF. PNG and JPEG are static image formats, whereas GIF images are static and animated images. Gif files are limited to 256 colors. PNG and JPEG are high-quality image formats commonly used to convert to SVG.Vector image formats
Vector files are used to create and store images that consist of mathematical formulas instead of pixels. It makes them ideal for creating images that need to be scaled because the vector format image can be increased or decreased in size without losing any clarity or image quality. Vector images include shapes that can be edited easily because the formulas are simple and easy to change. They can be printed or displayed in any resolution. The most common vector image format is SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics), supported by all major web browsers.SVG format (Scalable Vector Graphics)
SVG stands for Scalable Vector Graphics, a vector graphics format that enables the creation of vector graphics with reduced file size without losing quality. SVG files are made up of individual vector curves and shapes, which can be imported into most graphic design software to create layouts and graphics. Unlike other vector graphics formats such as PDF or AI Illustrator, SVG does not require a separate raster image to be designed for viewing or printing the final product. SVG uses XML for describing the graphics, allowing for a more consistent and maintainable format across different applications. SVG also supports interactivity, making it perfect for creating user interfaces. An SVG file can be used with various programming languages and vector editing software. Most browsers support it.What programs can convert to SVG?
