Scan or photograph a signature in dark ink on white paper for a free Basic SVG in your browser. Paper is dropped, so the background is transparent.
or drop images ·
A script-font signature with a curved underline, converted with no manual cleanup. Real handwriting is rougher, so expect a less tidy trace from a phone photo.
Both SVGs are real output from the source image above. Downloading an example is free; making your own Advanced SVG costs 1 credit.
Dark ink on white paper with even light is the easy case; a phone photo adds texture and colour fringes.
One image: free Basic SVG in your browser. Advanced SVG is 1 credit; free allowances apply. Nothing is uploaded for Basic.
Use dark ink on plain white paper, fill the frame and light it evenly. A scan is more consistent than a photo; if you photograph it, keep the page flat and avoid shadows from your hand or phone.
Crop to the signature and keep the paper plain. Paper texture, uneven light and colour casts turn into extra shapes and fringes, so a clean white background gives a cleaner SVG.
Choose, drop or paste a PNG, JPG or WebP up to 20 MB. Basic SVG is free and traced in your browser, so the image is not uploaded. Advanced SVG costs 1 credit and merges colours into fewer shapes; free Advanced allowances are listed in the FAQ.
Downloads are free. Basic SVG has a transparent background when the corners of your image are white. Advanced SVG keeps an opaque background rectangle; to remove it, open the file in any vector editor and delete the bottom-most shape.
You pay only when you get the file. Need editable slides instead? Image to PowerPoint.

Use dark ink on plain white paper, fill the frame and light it evenly. A scan is more consistent than a photo; if you photograph it, keep the page flat and avoid shadows from your hand or phone. A thicker pen gives the tracer more to hold on to.
Basic SVG is transparent when the corners of your image are white: the white paper is dropped and only the strokes remain. If the paper is off-white, grey or coloured, Basic keeps a background rectangle. Advanced SVG always keeps an opaque rectangle. To remove a rectangle, open the SVG in any vector editor and delete the bottom-most shape.
This tool only converts an image; it does not provide legal advice. Whether a signature image is valid depends on where you are and what it is used for, so check the rules that apply to you. Only convert signatures you are entitled to use.
Yes. Basic SVG is free and runs in your browser, so the image is not uploaded. Advanced SVG is 1 credit. Guests get one free Advanced conversion per device, then one more after signing in with Google; signing in with Google directly gives two. Email-code accounts have no free Advanced conversions. No subscription is needed.
A usable but rougher result. In the photo example, with slight rotation, paper texture and uneven light, Basic produced 170 paths, 165 colours and a 74 KB file: the letters were readable, but stroke edges had pale grey fringes, the paper texture became one grey-beige background rectangle, and the underline broke into uneven thicknesses. A clean scan gives a cleaner SVG.
PNG, JPG or WebP up to 20 MB on the website. Crop to the signature; a large scan is slower to trace and makes a larger SVG.
No. The signature is traced as filled outlines, not live strokes, so pen-pressure variation, paper texture and the way a line was drawn are not stored as editable stroke data.
Or drop one PNG, JPG or WebP anywhere on this page.
