AVIF to SVG Converter

Summary

SVG is a vector container that can embed raster images via a base64-encoded data URI. This tool reads your AVIF file, encodes it in base64, and wraps it in a minimal SVG document that preserves the original pixel dimensions. The result is a valid .svg file you can open in any browser or SVG-aware application.

How it works

1. Click the upload area or drag and drop an AVIF file.
2. Your browser reads the file as a base64 data URI using the FileReader API.
3. A browser Image element decodes the AVIF to read the natural width and height.
4. The tool builds an SVG document with a matching viewBox and an <image> element that references the base64-encoded AVIF.
5. Click "Download SVG" to save the resulting .svg file to your device.

Use cases

• Embed an AVIF photo inside an SVG graphic for web use.
• Wrap a product image in SVG for scalable display in design tools.
• Package an AVIF file as SVG for systems that accept SVG but not AVIF.
• Archive an AVIF image in a self-contained, single-file SVG document.
• Use the SVG wrapper as a stepping stone before adding SVG overlays in Inkscape.
