More Converters
Convert Adobe Illustrator (.ai) files to SVG format for web use, editing in other applications, or sharing vector graphics without requiring Illustrator. SVG is the web standard for scalable vector graphics.
SVG files can be displayed directly in web browsers, edited in free tools like Inkscape, and scale perfectly to any size without losing quality.
Why Convert AI to SVG?
- Web Compatibility: SVG is natively supported by all modern browsers and is the standard format for web vector graphics.
- No Adobe Software Required: Share vector artwork with anyone without requiring expensive Adobe Creative Cloud subscriptions.
- Edit in Free Tools: Open and edit SVG files in Inkscape, Figma, Sketch, or any vector editor.
- CSS and JavaScript Control: SVG can be styled with CSS and animated with JavaScript for interactive web graphics.
- Smaller File Size: SVG files are often smaller than AI files and are optimized for web delivery.
About the Formats
AI (Adobe Illustrator) is Adobe's proprietary vector graphics format. It supports complex features like layers, gradients, and effects, but requires Adobe Illustrator or compatible software to open.
SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) is an open XML-based format standardized by the W3C. It's supported by all modern browsers and can be created and edited with numerous free and commercial tools.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are layers preserved in the SVG output?
SVG supports groups which can represent layer structure. Complex layer arrangements may be flattened, but the visual output remains accurate.
What happens to special effects?
Some Illustrator-specific effects may be rasterized or simplified during conversion. Standard paths, shapes, and gradients convert cleanly to SVG.
Are fonts embedded?
Text is converted to paths in the SVG output, ensuring the design looks correct regardless of installed fonts. This slightly increases file size but guarantees visual accuracy.
Can I edit the SVG after conversion?
Yes, SVG files can be edited in any vector editor including Inkscape (free), Figma, Sketch, Affinity Designer, or even a text editor for simple changes.
