JPG to SVG
JPG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) is a lossy format built for camera photos and web thumbnails. This page focuses on turning those .jpg/.jpeg files into downloadable SVG—either by wrapping the pixels or by tracing color regions.
JPG-specific notes before you convert
Because JPG throws away fine detail to save space, aggressive tracing can turn compression blocks into odd shapes. For portraits or noisy photos, prefer Embed mode so the SVG simply carries a lossless-on-export PNG snapshot of your file.
EXIF orientation is respected by the browser when the image decodes, so width and height you see match what editors display. Tracing still downsamples very large photos to keep the tab responsive.
If you need true vectors from a photo, expect a poster-like result—raise colors in Trace presets such as Detailed only when the source is already clean (e.g., flat marketing shots).
