Are my images uploaded?
No. Your image is processed locally in your browser and is not uploaded to Dranworks.
Can I compare the compressed image with the original?
Yes. After an image has been compressed, use Compare to inspect the original and compressed versions side by side.
Can I compress multiple images at once?
Yes. You can add multiple supported images and Dran will process them through a compression queue.
Can I convert a photo to SVG?
You can, but photos usually contain too much color and texture to produce a simple vector. Image to SVG works best with logos, icons, illustrations and other graphic artwork.
Can I convert multiple images at once?
Yes. You can add multiple images and convert them together, then download each file individually or download all converted images as a ZIP file.
Can I edit the SVG after downloading it?
Yes. The downloaded SVG can be opened in vector design tools such as Figma, Illustrator or Inkscape.
Does Compress Image change the image format?
No. JPG remains JPG, PNG remains PNG, and WebP remains WebP. Use Convert Image if you want to change formats.
Does compression change the image dimensions?
No. Compress Image keeps the original width and height. It only optimizes the file size.
Does converting an image change its dimensions?
No. Convert Image keeps the original image dimensions. It only changes the image format.
Does image compression reduce quality?
It can. JPG and WebP compression may reduce some image quality depending on the selected quality level. The Balanced preset is designed to reduce file size while keeping visual differences minimal.
Does Image to SVG preserve transparency?
Yes. Transparent areas in PNG and WebP images are preserved where possible. Semi-transparent edges and effects may be approximated during vectorization.
Is Convert Image free to use?
Yes. Convert Image can be used without creating an account or signing in.
Is image metadata preserved?
Compression may remove unnecessary metadata during browser-based processing. If you need detailed metadata management, use the dedicated metadata tool when available.
Is the result a real vector SVG?
Yes. The tool traces your image into SVG paths and shapes rather than simply placing the original bitmap inside an SVG file.
