Fully automatic vectorization Vector Magic analyzes your image and automatically detects appropriate settings to vectorize it with, and then goes ahead and traces out the underlying shapes in full color. This makes getting started a real breeze: just upload your image and presto, a result to review! Naturally you can revise the auto-detected settings. Vector Magic offers you meaningful settings that are comprehensible to humans, not just to a machine, and they're easy to change. Need to convert JPG to SVG?

Look to Vector Magic for the best results in the industry. Sub-pixel precision Vector Magic carefully traces out every bit of information available in your image, slicing each edge pixel at precisely the right spot to re-create the intention of your original. This allows us to tease out small details that are lost by other tools, pushing the envelope of how small you can go before a nuance of your input is lost. Clients often give their logos in PNG format, but you may need to convert to SVG to print them. They can take hours to re-draw. Instead, use Vector Magic and you'll often get great results in just seconds. The right number of nodes If you've used other auto-tracing tools before, you may have noticed just what an awful number of nodes they use to create your result, and just how weirdly they place them.

Vector Magic is a breath of fresh air, intelligently selecting the right number of nodes to use, and placing them at excellent locations. This makes working with the results much easier and reduces file sizes. Vector Magic is bar none the world's best PNG to SVG converter.

If you need to convert PNG to SVG, look no further. Edit the result Not only does Vector Magic offer you, we also let you edit the result, both online and in the desktop app. You can eliminate unwanted shapes, connect shapes that have been separated, fix broken lines, and separate shapes that should not be touching, all in the form of an easy-to-use pixel-style editor. This remarkable feature can be a real life-saver when there are a few small blemishes in your result. For some reason, nobody seems to keep originals around in EPS format. Whenever you need to convert to EPS, always try Vector Magic first.

Tracing not Embedding Vector Magic always traces your bitmap, carefully teasing out the underlying shapes in it, and provides you with a real vector image with all of its benefits. In contrast, there are numerous services available online that claim to convert bitmaps to vectors, but that in reality just embed the pixels without actually tracing them into vector shapes. This leaves you with a file that will still be blurry when scaled, and will not be usable for cutting, sewing, laser engraving, or other purposes that require a real vector. Save yourself the frustration and go with Vector Magic for real vectorization! Graphic designers often need to convert JPG to SVG. Use Vector Magic to get the job done fast.

Bitmap image file formats There is a large number of different bitmap formats. Some of the most common are: JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP, and TIFF.

Broadly speaking, they fall into two categories: Lossy formats These have smaller file sizes but do not store a perfect copy of the image. They are best suited to photographs and other images where perfect accuracy is not important. They are also commonly used on the web to save bandwidth. One of the most widely-used image formats. It has excellent compression characteristics and has the nice feature that the user may specify what level of compression they desire, trading off fidelity for file size. We do not recommend using JPEG files for rasterized vector art, as the compression artifacts substantially degrade the quality of the image near edges. Lossless formats These store an exact pixel-by-pixel representation of the image, but require more space.

They are more suitable for things like logos. The best of the lossless image formats is called PNG (Portable Network Graphics). This format is widely supported by web browsers and image viewers/editors. Vector Magic recommends using the PNG format when storing logos as bitmaps. There are actually several BMP formats (BitMaP). Windows and Macintosh have their own formats, both of which are called BMP. Most modern image editing tools are able to read both.
