Need to turn a .svg file into PNG? Citrus converts SVG to PNG right on your Mac, offline, using Apple's own engines. Nothing is uploaded to any server, which matters for client work, private photos and contracts.
Citrus draws the vector SVG at high resolution (at least 2048 px on the long edge) so the result is sharp. Use the resize option to pick an exact size. Very complex SVGs that use filters or custom fonts may look slightly different from your browser.
Both formats are lossless, so pixels are preserved.
Resize by percent or pixels, crop, and choose whether to keep EXIF and location data, all before converting.
How to convert SVG to PNG
Open Citrus from the menu bar (the citrus slice icon).
Drop your .svg file, or several, into the window. You can also drag a file onto the menu bar icon to open the quick wheel.
Choose PNG as the output format and adjust options if you want, like size, quality or resolution.
Press Convert. Your new files appear next to the originals, and the originals are never changed.
About the formats
SVG: SVG is a vector image format used for logos, icons and illustrations. It stays sharp at any size, but many apps and social sites need a PNG or JPG.
PNG: PNG is a lossless image format with transparency. It is ideal for screenshots, logos and graphics, but photos become large files.
