How to convert SVG to PPM

  1. Drop your .svg files above, or click Upload Files. You can add many files at once.
  2. PPM is already selected as the output. Open the settings (gear icon) to fine-tune the result.
  3. Click Convert All. ImageMagick runs inside your browser through WebAssembly; nothing is uploaded.
  4. Download your .ppm files as soon as each one finishes.

What to know about SVG to PPM conversion

  • The SVG is rendered by your browser's own engine, so fonts, gradients and CSS look exactly as on screen. Set a width to rasterize it larger without any blur.
  • PPM has no transparency, so transparent areas of the SVG are filled with white.
  • PPM cannot store animation, so only the first frame of an animated SVG is converted.
  • PPM is best for image processing pipelines and scientific code, and opens in GIMP, ImageMagick and Netpbm tools.

Frequently asked questions

Is it safe to convert SVG to PPM here?

Yes. Your files are processed entirely on your own device by WebAssembly code running in the browser. They are never uploaded, so nobody else can see them, and the converter keeps working even if your connection drops after the page loads.

Is there a file size limit?

There is no server-side limit. The only limit is the memory available to your browser, typically 1.5–4 GB on desktop computers.

Can I convert several SVG files at once?

Yes. Add as many files as you like; they are converted in parallel according to your device's CPU cores, and you can apply the same settings to all of them.
