Image to SVG silhouette converter
Create clean silhouettes for engraving and cutting.
Upload a photo, logo, drawing or signature, turn it into a black and white silhouette, clean the mask by hand and export PNG or SVG directly from your browser.
How to get a clean SVG silhouette from a photo
Start with a photo where the subject is separated from the background. A dog in front of a plain wall, a dark logo on white paper or a high-contrast signature will convert much more cleanly than a busy outdoor scene.
- Use Keep largest object for people, pets and products with extra background details.
- Move the threshold until the important outline becomes solid, then clean the small mistakes with the brush.
- Export PNG for quick preview and SVG for laser, cutting, stencil and design software workflows.
Image to SVG silhouette FAQ
Can it make a dog silhouette from a normal photo?
Yes, when the dog has enough contrast against the background. The largest-object mode helps, and the brush/eraser tools let you fix difficult areas manually.
Is the SVG a real editable file?
Yes. The export creates SVG vector shapes from the black silhouette mask. Very detailed photos may create larger SVG files, so the smaller-file setting is useful for sharing.
Are uploaded images stored?
No. The conversion runs in the browser using canvas. The image is not uploaded to a server by this page.
