What file formats do you support?

We support over 100 file formats including images (JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, TIFF), documents (PDF, DOC, DOCX, TXT), videos (MP4, AVI, MOV), audio (MP3, WAV, FLAC), and many more specialized formats.

Yes, absolutely. We use enterprise-grade encryption for all file transfers. Your files are automatically deleted from our servers after conversion, and we never store or access your personal data.

What is the maximum file size?

The maximum file size for free users is 100MB per file. Premium users can convert files up to 1GB. For larger files, we recommend our batch processing feature.

How long does conversion take?

Most files convert in under 30 seconds. The exact time depends on file size and format complexity. Our advanced algorithms ensure the fastest possible conversion while maintaining quality.

Can I convert multiple files at once?

Yes! Our batch processing feature allows you to upload and convert up to 50 files simultaneously. This is perfect for bulk conversions and saves significant time.

Do I need to create an account?

No account is required for basic conversions. However, creating a free account gives you access to batch processing, file history, and priority support.

Why Choose Our Converter?

Fast, reliable SVG to XPM rasterization optimized for batch image workflows and legacy application support

Fast Vector Rasterization

Convert SVG vectors to XPM rasters quickly with optimized CPU rendering for multi-file batches.

Predictable Pixel Output

Produces consistent bitmap results at chosen export dimensions, avoiding renderer variance across tools.

Batch-Friendly

Process hundreds of SVG assets in grouped batches, with progress and ZIP packaging for easy download.

Legacy App Support

XPM is suited for Unix window bitmaps and older toolchains that require plain-text C-style pixmaps.

Export Controls

Specify output width, height, and background flattening to control how vectors map to XPM pixels.

Client-Side Processing

Conversions execute in-browser memory buffers so source SVG content does not leave the user device.

Source vs Target Format

Key technical differences between formats

Feature	Source Format	Target Format
Compression	Vector text-based, compact	Uncompressed pixel map or simple text encoding
File Size	Usually small for simple artwork	Often larger due to explicit pixel data
Quality	Scalable without loss	Lossless at chosen resolution (rasterized)
Transparency	Full alpha and compositing	Single transparent index only
Metadata	Embedded XML metadata possible	No standardized metadata container
Primary Use	Scalable illustrations, icons, UI vectors	Legacy bitmaps for X Window toolkits and C resources

Tips and Best Practices

Optimize your conversion workflow with technical recommendations.

Prepare SVG Structure

Flatten complex SVG masks into separate layers before batch rasterization to control final pixel composition
Convert text to outlines in SVG when exact glyph shape is critical after rasterizing to XPM
Simplify SVG filters and remove unsupported CSS to avoid renderer-dependent artifacts in the XPM result
Export SVG at targeted pixel dimensions to ensure one-to-one mapping of vector strokes to XPM pixels
Split animated SVG sequences into numbered SVG frames if you intend to export them as separate XPM files

Optimize XPM Output

Choose indexed palette reduction to decrease XPM size by mapping SVG colors to fewer entries
Select a single background color to use the XPM transparent index effectively for UI bitmaps
Lower export resolution for thumbnails to cut pixel count and speed up batch runs
Group similar SVG assets into batches to reuse palette choices and improve compression consistency
Verify color mapping on a sample to prevent banding when gradients are reduced to indexed colors

Integrate with Toolchains

Use XPM outputs directly in legacy X11 toolkits or convert to C arrays for embedding in source code
For modern pipelines, provide both XPM and PNG exports so newer editors can edit bitmaps while legacy systems use XPM
Automate batch naming with numeric suffixes so generated XPM frames integrate into existing build scripts
If downstream requires transparency, confirm which color index the runtime treats as transparent and match during export
Test the XPM in the target runtime early, as renderer expectations (palette order, comment headers) can vary

Verify and Secure Batches

Process batches in groups of 20–50 to reduce browser memory pressure and enable recoverable checkpoints
Keep original SVG and exported XPM together in archives so metadata and source vectors remain available
Scan sample outputs for visual regressions after any rendering engine update to the converter
Avoid uploading proprietary SVG fonts or credentials; maintain local-only processing for sensitive assets
Promptly download and remove large ZIPs after verification to minimize local storage exposure

Fast Processing

Close unused tabs for maximum throughput.

Client-Side Privacy

No media leaves your device.

Broad Compatibility

Output files work across all operating systems.

Pro Tip

For batch conversions, process in groups of 20-50 files to optimize memory usage and avoid browser slowdowns.
