Frequently Asked Questions

• How do I convert a PNG to SVG?

  Upload your PNG, choose full color or black and white, and click Vectorize. Kittl traces your image into an SVG you can download straight away or open in the Kittl Editor to recolor and keep designing. If your PNG has a background you don’t need, remove it in one click before you convert. You get 3 free conversions to start.

• Which PNG images convert best?

  Logos, icons, lettering, flat illustrations, and graphics with clear edges and a limited set of colors convert best. Detailed photos and soft gradients can be converted too, but they turn into many more shapes and a more complex file. Working with a photo? Try the JPG to SVG converter.

• Can I convert PNG to SVG without losing color?

  Yes. Pick full color mode and Kittl keeps the colors of your PNG in the SVG, with each color traced as its own shape. That makes it easy to recolor parts of your logo or illustration later in the Kittl Editor. Choose black and white instead when you need a single-color file, like a stamp, stencil, or cut file.

• How do I open a vectorized image in the Kittl Editor?

  To edit a vectorized image in Kittl:

  • Go to 'Uploads' in the left hand menu of the Kittl Editor
  • Select your SVG
  • Drag it to you project to change colors or create a design in Kittl

• Can I convert PNG to SVG without losing quality?

  Conversion to vector will always lead to loss of detail. To enjoy the highest quality choose color mode in Kittl when converting your PNG to SVG.

• Can I convert a transparent PNG to SVG?

  Yes. Transparent logos, icons, and graphics with clearly defined edges are particularly suitable for vectorization.

• Is the PNG to SVG converter free?

  Yes, you can convert 3 PNGs to SVG for free. Each one gives you a full SVG file you can download or edit in Kittl. If you need more conversions or higher-quality results, sign up for a Kittl plan and keep converting from the same page.

• Can I change the colors of my logo after converting it to SVG?

  Yes. Open your SVG in the Kittl Editor and every traced shape is editable, so you can swap colors, delete parts, or add text around it. That’s useful when you only have an old PNG of your logo and need a clean, editable version for print, merch, or a new brand color.
