What is an SVG file?
SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) is an XML-based vector image format for two-dimensional graphics with support for interactivity and animation. Unlike raster images (JPEG, PNG), SVG uses mathematical equations to define lines and shapes, meaning it can be scaled to any size without losing quality (pixelating).
Our Online SVG Viewer renders these vector files precisely, allowing you to zoom in infinitely and inspect the details of logos, icons, and illustrations.
