Good to know

  • Each page of the XPS is kept as a page of the SVG (a separate SVG for each, in a ZIP).

Frequently asked questions

Is converting XPS to SVG free?

Yes. Everyone gets 25 free credits a day, with no account needed. Conversions on our server use one credit per started minute of work, so most cost a single credit. Credits reset at midnight UTC.

Are my XPS pictures uploaded anywhere?

This conversion runs on our server, because reading XPS needs MuPDF, which doesn't run in a browser. Your file is sent over an encrypted connection, and both it and the result are deleted 72 hours after the conversion.

How large can the XPS file be?

Up to 1 GB per file. This conversion runs on our server, which accepts files up to that size.

Can I change the size or quality of the SVG?

Yes. Click Options next to the file to set a width and height, choose a quality, remove metadata and more. Only the settings that make sense for XPS to SVG are shown.

Can I convert several XPS files at once?

Yes. Add as many files as you like; they are converted one after another, and each one gets its own Download button.
