> To convert a JPG to SVG, upload it here. SVGProof traces the logo into smooth SVG paths and reads through JPEG compression: the blocky halos around text and edges and the speckled colors are cleaned up instead of becoming extra shapes. Download SVG, EPS, AI, PDF and DXF. Free preview, no sign-up.

Example on this page: Aurora (Gemini JPEG, 1408 px): 1408 × 768 px in, 787 nodes in 52 paths out, traced in 338 ms (measured by the engine).

## Why is a JPG logo harder to vectorize?

- JPEG saves the image in 8 × 8 pixel blocks and throws detail away. Around text and sharp edges that leaves halos and blocky smudges.
- A flat color becomes many slightly different colors. A naive trace turns each one into its own shape.
- JPEG has no transparency, so there is always a background to remove.

We treat those as noise: edges are placed where the design has them, near-identical colors merge into one, and the background becomes its own layer you can remove.

## How do I convert a JPG to SVG?

1. Drop the logo on this page (or paste it). PNG, JPG or WEBP up to 5 MB and 17 megapixels (8192 px on a side); larger images are scaled to 4 megapixels first.
2. Compare the vector with your image in the editor, zoomed in. Remove the background, merge near-duplicate colors or snap them to your brand colors if you need to.
3. Download the SVG (one credit) and open it in Figma, Illustrator, Inkscape, Affinity, or send it to your printer.

## What if I only have a small JPG or a screenshot?

It still traces, and a clean vector of a small logo often looks better than the original. Detail smaller than a few pixels cannot be recovered, though. Use the largest copy you can find: the original from whoever made the logo, an old email attachment, or the image on your own website. Crop to the logo before you upload.

## When is SVGProof the wrong tool?

- JPG photos. Most JPGs are photos, and a photo has no clean shapes to trace. We refuse them rather than return a poster-effect file.
- Embroidery beyond a simple fill. Our experimental EXP file sews each color as a fill; satin lettering, DST or PES files and a file tuned to the fabric still need a digitizer, who starts from a vector like ours.

## Questions

### JPG or PNG: which should I upload?

The largest, least compressed copy you have. If both are the same size, the PNG, because it has no compression blocks.

### Does it work for JPEG and JFIF files?

JPEG is the same format as JPG. PNG, JPG or WEBP up to 5 MB and 17 megapixels (8192 px on a side); larger images are scaled to 4 megapixels first.

### Is it free?

Converting, comparing and editing are free and need no account; a PNG up to 512 px is free too. The SVG and full-size PNG of one logo cost one credit ($10 buys 25).
