Converting SVG files using Contenta Converter PREMIUM

Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) is a text-based graphics language that describes images with vector shapes, text, and embedded raster graphics. SVG files are compact and provide high-quality graphics on the Web, in print, and on resource-limited handheld devices. In addition, SVG supports scripting and animation, so is ideal for interactive, data-driven, personalized graphics.

However, because it is a text-based format instead of a binary image format many graphics programs don’t read the SVG format and that is where Contenta Converter PREMIUM can provide assistance. Using Contenta Converter PREMIUM you can load a SVG (following the W3C tinySVG specification) file and convert it to formats like JPG, GIF, PNG, and many others. I will demonstrate the quick and easy way to do this with Contenta Converter PREMIUM.

Step 1: Select your photos.

Click on the Add Photos button and select from your computer the .SVG document you wish to convert. Then click the ‘Next’ button.

Step 2: Configure the conversion job

Make sure the “Do convert to format” check box is checked and select the format. In this example we picked PDF, but the drop down menu also gives you more than a dozen other formats! You can also select a different output folder if you want to. This is the location where the files converted to PDF will be stored.

Step 3: Choosing Effects

This is an optional step that allows you to choose color processing effects like Black and White, Sepia and Brightness-Contrast. In this example, we choose to convert the image to black and white.
