- Email: SVG not supported in most email clients — use PNG
- Social media: Instagram, Twitter profile photos require PNG or JPG
- PowerPoint/Word images: embed high-res PNG from SVG source
- App store assets: iOS and Android require PNG icon assets
- Legacy systems: CMS platforms that don't support SVG upload

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert SVG to PNG for free?
Open your SVG in Chrome or Firefox, right-click, and 'Save Image As PNG'. For precise resolution control, use Inkscape (File > Export PNG) with specific DPI settings.
Does SVG to PNG lose quality?
Converting SVG to PNG rasterizes the vector paths. Set a high DPI (300+) for print quality. For web use, 96 DPI is standard. The SVG source is lossless — set any DPI you need.
How do I export SVG as transparent PNG?
SVG with no background rectangle exports as transparent PNG by default. In Inkscape, enable 'Background opacity 0' in Export PNG dialog for guaranteed transparency.
Can I convert SVG to @2x and @3x PNG?
Yes. Export the same SVG at 192 DPI for @2x and 288 DPI for @3x. Inkscape's command line: inkscape file.svg [email protected] --export-dpi=192.
What's the maximum PNG size I can export from SVG?
SVG has no resolution limit. Memory limits your maximum PNG export size — extremely large exports (10000×10000px+) may require significant RAM and export time.
