How to convert image file to svg format with path attributes? - image

I want to convert image files into .svg format.
I used bunch of tools out there but they gave us with this format
<svg ... >
<image
xlink:href="data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAT
....
But I want to have svg file with path attributes.
Any recommendation would be great help.

Not really a programming question, but a quick answer is inkscape, the has a function called 'Trace Bitmap' to turn a raster image such as the png you mention into paths.

How can ı convert a jpg file to a svg code?

Converting a jpg file to a svg code.
Hi guys, my friend sent me a jpeg file and I want to add this file to Figma but when ı try to change the structure of file in Figma, ı could not alter the colors and other things. If ı get an svg code and paste it to figma, ı may solve the problems. Thank you!
Short answer: you can't. JPEG is a raster image type (saves info about pixels) and SVG is vector (saves lines and fills mathematically according to degrees, thickness, etc)

Convert dwg file with external refernced .tif file to Svg

I have few .dwg file which have linked external .tif file. And I want to convert that to .svg file so that we can display the image on browser.
I hope I understood your question right. Please be precise.
What you could do is copy the References to a certain layer in Autocad, so it is in the dwg itself and then use one of the "DWG to SVG Converter" which you can find on google.
This online converter for example: DWG to SVG Converter!
Hope I could help you.

Inkscape - Not fully converting png into svg

I opened one PNG file in Inkscape and exported it as SVG. When I opened that file with notepad I came to know that the PNG file is embedded within it. If the conversion happened then the resulting file should have only SVG related tags. It shouldn't embed the image within it. Or Am I doing anything wrong.
Note: Save as option also producing the same kind of file. I am using Inkscape version 0.48 in Windows 7 - 64 bit.
This is a bit of an old thread, but it comes up early in Google so I thought I'd contribute something.
In Inkscape, you must do a trace to change the image into SVG. Look at the Path | Trace bitmap menu item and play with the options on that screen.
After creating the trace, you can remove your source image and have a pure svg in your saved file.
I've found it helpful to create layers in Inkscape and move the source image to one layer and put the trace on another layer to let me make quick comparisons using the 'hide layer' buttons.
BTW, your source image can be anything - bmp, jpg, png, etc.
A .png file is a raster image file. In order to convert it to a vector graphic based format like .svg and have it be "native" svg rather than an included image you are going to either have to use a program that can rasterize it or in Inkscape trace the bitmap and turn it into paths. Inkscape provides information on tracing: http://inkscape.org/doc/tracing/tutorial-tracing.html

Convert SVG to image

How do I convert an svg file to an image using Go ?
I found the amazing svgo library and would like to use it to generate a custom set of playing cards. The idea is to store the text and layout of a card in a text file and then read and process it with go. This would be a huge improvement of my current workflow where I use gimp to edit each individual card. The problem is that I need to have an image of the card for printing. Preferably png since the printing script so far only works with that format. But I could easily adapt it to accept jpeg, too.
Unfortunately svgo doesn't seem to offer export functionality. Can you recommend a go library to convert svg to png ?
One possible strategy is to write your SVG to files and invoke an external tool to convert them. For example, ImageMagick and its related GraphicsMagick will both convert SVG to PNG via command-line options. You would need to use the convert verb, possibly within their batch support if you're converting lots of images at once.
GraphicsMagick has bindings for C and Go and other languages that you could use directly from your Go scripts, although I've not tried this myself.
I can't find a native Go library to do it, but there seems to be a way to convert an HTML canvas element to PNG quite simply in Javascript.
You can therefore output SVG to an HTML canvas element, and then use JS to export to SVG.
See this answer for details.

tcpdf: poor image quality

I am using TCPDF to create PDF files converted from HTML input using it's writeHTML() function. However, images within the PDF have poor quality, while the original images have a high quality (as expected). The images are in PNG format. I already tried to use SetJPEGQuality(100), but that had no effect.
What is causing this?
Try using this:
$pdf->setImageScale(1.53);
http://sourceforge.net/projects/tcpdf/forums/forum/435311/topic/4831671
When using HTML to generate your PDFs you need to manually calculate the images dimensions by dividing it's original width and height by 1.53 and set the result as attributes.
For example, an image with dimensions of 200x100 pixels will become:
<img src="image.jpg" width="131" height="65" />
This is a nasty workaround and doesn't completely remove the blur, but the result is much better than without any scaling.
Try To convert your Image to JPG or JPEG first. Until Now, I DOnt have a problem to convert image with TCPDF. I Think TCPDF is powerfull, because it can convert arabic language too. I HAve try convert arabic font with fpdf n it still fail
Little Up.
I'd same quality problem and I solved it...
When you save your picture, do it in 8bits instead of 24bits and you will see a "beautiful anti-aliasing".
