PNG LOGO TO SVG

PNG logo → scalable SVG.

The most common vectorization job there is: a logo that exists only as a PNG from an old email or website, needed now as a vector for print, cutting, or a retina-sharp site. Drop it below – PNGs are the best-case tracing source.

Transparent-background PNGs convert cleanest – the transparency tells the tracer exactly where the logo ends.

PNG is the ideal source

Lossless edges, no compression noise, and an alpha channel that doubles as a perfect mask – PNG logos trace cleaner than any other raster source.

Transparency in, transparency out

Transparent regions are simply never traced – your SVG arrives background-free, ready for any surface, light or dark.

Color-faithful

Color mode rebuilds each flat brand color as its own editable shape – tweak a hue later without re-tracing.

STEP BY STEP

How to convert a PNG logo to SVG

Use the biggest PNG you have Check the brand’s website press page, old design folders, and email attachments for the highest-resolution copy.
Trace in Color mode Flat brand colors come through as separate clean shapes. Single-color marks: B&W mode is even crisper.
Inspect at zoom The preview scales – check letterforms and tight curves, the places tracing struggles first. Adjust detail and re-run instantly.
Export the master Download the SVG and treat it as the brand master going forward – then generate the full asset kit.

Why your white-background PNG needs one extra step

Many logo PNGs ship flattened on white. In Color mode that white becomes a traced shape – easily deleted afterward in the background remover workflow – or avoided entirely by tracing in B&W mode if the logo is single-color (white is thresholded away automatically).

If you’re choosing between source files: a 600px transparent PNG usually beats a 1200px white-background JPG. Transparency and clean edges matter more than raw resolution once you’re above ~500px.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert my PNG logo to vector for free?

Drop it in the converter above – tracing happens in your browser, output is true vector SVG. Free, no signup, no watermark.

The PNG has a white box around the logo – will the SVG?

In B&W mode, no (white is ignored). In Color mode the white becomes a shape – delete it in our free editor in one step.

What’s the minimum PNG size that works?

Around 300px yields usable results for simple marks; 800px+ handles detailed logos well. Below 300px, see the blurry logo techniques.

Will my brand colors be preserved exactly?

Flat colors, yes – the tracer samples them directly. Verify in the preview; any hue can be fine-tuned afterward in the color editor.
