Convert SVG to JPEG, PNG, and Other Formats in the Browser

Creating high-quality images from SVG graphics can be a challenge, especially when you need to export them in various formats. JavaScript provides a versatile solution for this task, enabling you to convert SVG images into bitmaps seamlessly without the need for external tools or plugins.

How to Convert SVG to Bitmap Images

To convert SVG to popular image formats like JPEG or PNG using JavaScript, you can follow these steps:

1. Use Canvg Library for Rendering:

   • Integrate the Canvg JavaScript library into your project: https://github.com/gabelerner/canvg.
   • Using Canvg, render the SVG image to Canvas. This step will generate a bitmap version of your SVG.

2. Capture Image Data from Canvas:

   • After rendering the SVG to Canvas, you can capture a data URI encoded as the desired format (e.g., JPG or PNG).
   • Refer to the comprehensive guide at Capture HTML Canvas as gif/jpg/png/pdf? for detailed instructions on how to implement this step.
