Frequently Asked Questions

What is Base64 encoding?

Base64 is a binary-to-text encoding scheme that represents binary data in an ASCII string format. It's commonly used to embed image data in web pages, CSS files, and other documents.

Why would I want to convert SVG to Base64?

Converting SVG to Base64 allows you to embed the image directly in your HTML, CSS, or JavaScript code. This can reduce HTTP requests, improve load times, and make your code more portable.

Is there a file size limit for the SVG input?

Our tool can handle most standard SVG files. However, very large files may result in longer processing times and could potentially cause performance issues in some browsers. We recommend keeping your SVG files under 1MB for optimal performance.

Can I use the Base64 output in my CSS?

Yes, you can use the Base64 output in your CSS. Simply use the data URI scheme in your background-image property, like this: background-image: url(data:image/svg+xml;base64,YOUR_BASE64_STRING_HERE);
