Exact pixel-region boundaries; no smooth-photo or original-text recovery. Transparency below 50% is removed.
Trace flat graphics to SVG
- Prepare the input
Choose a small, supported flat graphic and select 2, 4, 8 or 16 quantized colors. This traces regions of pixels into SVG paths, so use a logo or diagram, and don't expect smooth photographic detail or editable text.
- Try the worked example
A two-color graphic of 2×2 pixels can produce an SVG with the same 2×2 coordinate viewBox and colored regions. Enlarging that SVG scales the traced regions. It doesn't rebuild curves or letters that were lost in the raster image.
- Check and save
Open the saved SVG at a larger size and compare the edges, holes and transparent areas with the original. Check the number of colors you selected. Keep the original raster image, because quantization and the alpha threshold change the representation on purpose.
Questions
Will it recover fonts or smooth a photograph?
No. It follows the boundaries of regions of quantized pixels, without recognizing fonts, recovering the original vectors or smoothing a photo. More colors can add complexity without creating detail that is missing.
What happens to semi-transparent pixels?
In this profile, transparency below 50% is removed. Check holes and edges against a suitable background before you use the SVG. This is not a photographic conversion that preserves alpha.
Why is a detailed image refused?
Input is limited to 10 MiB, 512×512 pixels and 2,000 contours. Reduce how complex the source is or the number of colors. Too many contours are refused instead of exporting a trace that is silently incomplete.
