About SVG files

SVG is especially useful for logos, icons and diagrams that need to stay sharp at different sizes. It can also contain markup and styling that should be handled carefully when SVG files come from untrusted sources.

Where SVG works well

SVG is a vector graphics format that describes shapes, paths and text rather than storing a fixed grid of pixels.

Common uses

Logos and icons · Scalable diagrams · Web interface graphics

Strengths

Scales without raster blur · Editable vector structure · Often compact for shape-based graphics

Things to know

Not ideal for photographic imagery · Rendering can vary with fonts and external resources · Raster export is needed for software that does not accept SVG
