How to Transform PNG to SVG using C#

This brief tutorial explains how to transform PNG to SVG using C#. It has different details to set the development environment, the list of steps to develop the application, and a runnable sample code to convert PNG to vector using C#. You will also learn the procedure to customize the output SVG file as per your requirements.

Steps to Change PNG to SVG using C#

  1. Set the environment to use Aspose.SVG for .NET to convert PNG to SVG
  2. Initialize the ImageVectorizer object to customize the output SVG
  3. Set different properties of the Configuration object in the ImageVectorizer class
  4. Convert the PNG file to vectors using the ImageVectorizer.Vectorize() method
  5. Save the resultant file as SVG

These steps explain the development of a PNG to SVG converter using C#. This process is initiated by declaring and configuring the ImageVectorizer as it will transform the image to SVG using the Vectorize method. In this tutorial, we have just set the color limit however you may set other properties as well before saving the output SVG.

Code to Transform PNG to SVG using C#

This code demonstrates the conversion of PNG to SVG using C#. The ImageVectorizerConfiguration object in the ImageVectorizer class contains properties for instance ColorLimits, BackgroundColor, ImageSizeLimit, LineWidth, PathBuilder, and Stencil. The Vectorize() method returns the SVGDocument object having a lot of properties that can be set before saving it as an SVG file.
