Why convert JPG to SVG?

JPG (JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group)) — The most-used lossy format on the web. Excellent quality/size ratio for natural photos, but doesn't support transparency.

SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) — XML-based vector format. Scales losslessly at any size, ideal for logos and icons. PixelCrush rasterizes source SVGs and vectorizes raster targets via automatic tracing.

Converting JPG to SVG typically reduces file size while preserving a visual quality close to the original. Beware: moving from a lossy format to a lossless one does not improve quality — it can actually inflate file size.
