FAQ

Image to SVG — Common Questions

Is the Image to SVG tool free?

Yes — Image to SVG is completely free to use on OCRNEST. You can convert files without creating an account, and a free account gets you more monthly conversions. It runs in your web browser, so there is nothing to download or install, and it works on Windows, Mac, Linux, iPhone, and Android.

What file formats does Image to SVG support?

The tool accepts JPEG, JPG, PNG, BMP files. For best results use high-quality originals — images should be at least 150 DPI and documents should use standard formatting. Uploads are limited to 5 MB without an account, 15 MB with a free account, and 30 MB on paid plans.

How long does Image to SVG take?

Most image to svg jobs complete in under 10 seconds. Larger or multi-page files may take 20–30 seconds. File size and complexity are the main factors. There is no queue — your file is processed immediately.

Is my file private and secure?

Files you upload are sent to our servers over an encrypted connection and processed to produce your result. Uploads from visitors without an account are stored temporarily; files saved to a signed-in account are kept until you delete them. A few tools, such as Invert Image and Reduce Image Size, run in your browser and never upload your file. See our Privacy Policy for details.

Does the Image to SVG conversion preserve quality?

Yes. OCRNEST performs lossless conversion wherever possible. Images are processed at full resolution, and document structure (headings, tables, bullet lists) is preserved in the output format.
