Convert SVG to PNG without uploading the file

An SVG exported from a design tool is a text file, and text files remember. Layer and artboard names come through the export as identifiers, and those names are candid: a client, an internal project code, the working name of an unreleased feature, someone's initials. Anyone who opens the file in a text editor reads them without doing anything clever.

Rasterising is therefore a way to hand over a picture with nothing behind it. Only what renders ends up in the output, so names, comments and hidden elements do not survive into the PNG. It is a one way trip: you are trading the ability to scale for the certainty that the file contains only the image.

Because it is one way, choose the output size deliberately. The point of the source was resolution independence, so export at the largest size you plausibly need, and pick PNG or WebP if any part of the artwork is transparent. JPEG will fill transparency in and is the wrong choice for a logo.

The whole conversion runs without a network. Load the page, disconnect, drop the SVG in, and the PNG downloads anyway. If you keep the network panel open instead, you should see no outbound request unless the SVG itself references something remote, which is worth knowing before you rasterise it.
