Frequently asked questions
- Can I convert an animated GIF to SVG?
- An SVG is a single still vector, so the converter traces the first frame of an animated GIF. For animation, vectorize frames individually and animate them with CSS or SMIL.
- What GIFs convert well to SVG?
- Flat logos, icons, and simple line art. The limited GIF palette actually helps tracing, since there are clear flat colour regions to follow.
