Frequently asked questions
- Is my SVG uploaded to a server?
- No. All optimization happens entirely in your browser using the SVGO library compiled to JavaScript. Your files never leave your device.
- What does SVG optimization do?
- It removes unnecessary metadata, comments, hidden elements, default values, and redundant attributes. It also merges paths, collapses groups, and minifies the markup, typically reducing file size by 20-60%.
- Will optimization change how my SVG looks?
- The default preset preserves visual appearance. It only removes data that does not affect rendering, such as editor metadata, comments, and redundant attributes. Always preview the result before using it.
- Can I drop a file instead of pasting markup?
- Yes, any file ending in .svg. The optimized markup can be copied or saved as optimized.svg, and the size before and after is shown with the percentage saved.
- Is it safe to preview an SVG from an unknown source?
- The preview loads the SVG as a blob URL inside an img element, which cannot run scripts, so markup containing a script tag or an onload attribute stays inert while you inspect it.
