How do I convert SVG to XPM online?

Upload your SVG file, select XPM as the output format, adjust optional settings like DPI or color depth (up to 256 colors), then click Convert. Download the resulting XPM file instantly. The tool runs in your browser with no extra software.

Why would I convert SVG to XPM instead of keeping SVG?

XPM is a bitmap format widely used in X11 and Linux desktop environments for icons. Converting SVG (vector) to XPM gives you a pixel-based file that can be rendered by legacy applications that don't support vector graphics. It also ensures consistent appearance across systems, as XPM does not depend on SVG renderers.

What happens to transparency, colors, and vector details when converting SVG to XPM?

The conversion rasterizes the vector shapes at a chosen DPI, which determines resolution. Transparency is mapped to XPM's transparent pixel support. However, colors are quantized to a 256-color palette, so gradients and subtle shades may be reduced. There are no layers in XPM, so all elements are flattened. We offer adjustable DPI and palette size to minimize quality loss.
