Convert SVG to PNG

SVG is code that describes a drawing, which is why it stays sharp at any size — and why so many tools cannot display it. Converting to PNG rasterises the drawing into real pixels at a size you choose, keeping transparency intact.

Worth knowing

Rasterising is one-way. The PNG is fixed at the size you choose, so pick a resolution comfortably larger than where you will display it.
