Convert AVIF to PNG First

AVIF files need to be converted to PNG before SVG vectorization, as most vectorizers don't accept AVIF directly.

  • AVIF to PNG: open AVIF in Chrome, right-click > Save Image As > PNG
  • Or: use Squoosh.app — open AVIF, export as PNG
  • Or: use IrfanView (Windows) or Preview (Mac) to convert AVIF to PNG
  • Then: upload the PNG to imagetosvg.com to vectorize to SVG

When to Convert AVIF to SVG

AVIF is used for web photos and complex images — the types that don't always vectorize cleanly. Conversion makes most sense for specific use cases.

  • Logo or icon saved as AVIF: vectorize for CSS use or favicon
  • Flat design graphic in AVIF: converts well to SVG
  • Photographic AVIF: produces complex SVG — better to keep as AVIF or WebP
  • Cricut cut file: if the AVIF source is a simple design, SVG conversion works
