Resolution
Raster dimensions replace SVG's unlimited display scaling
An SVG can adapt to many sizes, but a PNG, JPG, or WebP has fixed width and height. Use 2x or another scale for high-density screens only when the resulting pixels match a real use. Very large exports cost memory and bytes, while undersized exports blur when enlarged.
Rendering
Fonts, linked files, filters, and browser support can change the picture
An SVG may reference fonts, images, styles, masks, filters, or scripts outside the file. If those resources are missing or unsupported, the browser render can substitute fonts or omit effects. Embed essential assets, convert critical text to paths when licensing permits, and compare the preview with the trusted source artwork.
Output format
Transparency requires PNG or WebP; JPG needs a deliberate background
PNG is dependable for logos, icons, UI graphics, and alpha transparency. WebP can be lighter in supported workflows. JPG removes transparency by compositing the SVG over the selected background and may soften sharp graphic edges. Keep SVG on the web when responsive scaling and editability are more valuable than raster compatibility.
