    About this converter

    SVG is a vector format that scales to any size without quality loss, described as XML rather than pixels. BMP is an uncompressed Windows bitmap format producing very large files, still common in legacy software.

    An SVG is instructions rather than pixels, which is why it stays sharp at any size — and why anything expecting a picture rejects it. Converting SVG to BMP rasterises the drawing at a fixed size, for the upload form, the document or the app that will not take a vector.

    Expect the BMP to be bigger than the SVG you started with — often several times bigger. That is not a fault: BMP stores every pixel exactly rather than approximating them, which is the whole point of it, and it costs space. If what you actually want is a smaller file, compress it instead.

    Frequently asked questions

    Will converting to BMP reduce the image quality?

    No — BMP keeps every detail exactly as it was.

    Do my SVG files get sent anywhere?

    No. Everything happens on your own device, so your pictures never leave it.
