SVG to PDF
Convert SVG to PDF in your browser with the artwork kept as vectors, so it stays sharp at any size. The page is sized to the artwork, not dropped onto A4. Nothing is uploaded.

Don't take our word for it. Turn off your Wi‑Fi, then use this tool. It will work exactly the same, which is only possible because your file never goes anywhere.
Worth knowing
Fonts referenced by name rather than embedded may be substituted, because the PDF has no copy of them. Convert text to outlines in your editor first if the typeface matters.
An SVG that pulls in an image or a font from a web address cannot fetch it here — nothing on this site makes network requests for your file.
Keeping it vector is the whole point
An SVG describes shapes: this curve, that fill, this stroke width. It has no resolution, which is why a logo saved as SVG looks identical on a business card and on the side of a van. Convert it to a PNG and you freeze it at one size forever. Convert it to a PDF properly and it stays a description of shapes.
That is what happens here. Paths are written into the PDF as paths, not photographed. Open the result, zoom to 3000 percent, and the edges are still clean. A print shop can scale it to whatever the job needs without asking you for a bigger file.
The page is the artwork
Most converters drop your artwork onto an A4 sheet, which is almost never what anyone wants. A logo becomes a small mark floating in a sea of white, and the person receiving it has to crop it before they can use it.
Here the page is made exactly the size of the artwork, taken from the SVG's own width and height, or from its viewBox when it has no explicit size. What you get is the mark, at its own dimensions, ready to place into something else. If you want it on a page, adding one is easy; getting it off is not.
When an SVG has no size at all
An SVG can carry a viewBox and nothing else. That gives it a shape and proportions but no intrinsic size, and a browser asked to render one will fall back to a default 300 by 150 and squash the artwork to fit. It is the single most common way an SVG conversion silently comes out wrong.
This reads the viewBox and uses its proportions, so that case converts correctly. A file with neither a size nor a viewBox has no right answer available, and you are told so rather than handed something distorted.
Fonts, and the one thing to watch
SVG text usually names a font rather than containing it. If that font is not available, something else is substituted and the spacing changes — sometimes subtly, sometimes badly. It is the same problem that makes a document look different on someone else's computer.
If the typeface matters, convert your text to outlines in Illustrator, Inkscape or Figma before exporting the SVG. Outlined text is shapes, and shapes cannot be substituted. Do it on a copy, because outlined text is no longer editable as words.
What cannot happen here
An SVG can reference an image or a font from a web address. Nothing on this site fetches anything for your file, deliberately — that is the promise the whole site rests on — so those parts simply will not appear. Embed them in the SVG before converting.
If you need a flat image rather than a vector file, SVG to PNG keeps transparency and SVG to JPG makes smaller files. And if what you actually have is Illustrator artwork, AI to PDF does the same job from a .ai file.
Questions people ask
Does the artwork stay as vectors?
Yes. Paths stay paths, so the PDF prints at any size without pixelation. That is the whole reason to convert an SVG to PDF rather than exporting a PNG.
What size will the page be?
Exactly the size of the artwork, taken from the SVG's width and height or its viewBox. A logo becomes a page shaped like that logo, not a mostly-empty A4 sheet — which is what you want when placing it into something else.
My SVG has no width or height. Will it work?
Yes, as long as it has a viewBox, which almost all do. If it has neither, there is genuinely no correct size to use and you will be told so rather than getting a squashed result.
What happens to text in the SVG?
It is drawn as text where the font can be resolved. If the SVG names a font it does not include, a substitute is used — so convert text to outlines beforehand when the exact typeface matters.
Is my file uploaded?
No. The conversion runs in this browser tab. Turn off your Wi-Fi and it still works.

SVG: when to export it, and when to leave it alone
An SVG has no resolution, which makes it the best format to keep and an awkward one to hand over. Knowing which situation you are in saves a lot of re-exporting.
