Convert SVG to PNG

Converting SVG to PNG is worth doing when the destination matters more than the source. SVG is built for vector artwork that stays sharp at any size. PNG is built for screenshots, logos and anything needing sharp edges or transparency. Which one you want depends entirely on where the image is going next.

The standard way to rasterise vector artwork. PNG is lossless and keeps transparency, so a logo exported this way has clean edges and no background, which is what almost every use of an SVG export actually needs. Choose your pixel size carefully, because you cannot go back up.

SVG is vector artwork, so it has no fixed pixel size until you give it one. Converting to PNG means choosing a resolution, and the result stops being scalable: enlarging it later will show pixels where the SVG original would have stayed perfectly crisp. Export at the largest size you expect to need.

PNG is the standard way to rasterise vector artwork, and the right default. It is lossless, so the hard edges that make vector art worth using stay hard, and it keeps transparency so a logo arrives without a white box behind it. Choose your pixel size deliberately, because you cannot go back up.

SVG is not decoded so much as drawn. The vector instructions are rendered to a pixel grid at the size you choose, which is why the export resolution is a decision here rather than a property of the source file.
