## Overview

Easily convert your JPEG images into SVG format with our professional-grade conversion tool, supporting both embedded image data and advanced vector tracing methods for scalable graphics.

## Inputs

- **JPEG Image File** (file): Select JPEG image to convert
- **SVG Method** (select): Select SVG conversion method
- **Target Width (px)** (number): Enter target width (optional)
- **Target Height (px)** (number): Enter target height (optional)
- **Image Quality (0-100)** (number): Enter embedded image quality
- **Preserve Aspect Ratio** (checkbox): Check to maintain original aspect ratio

## When to use

- When you need to scale a raster image to any size without losing quality.
- When preparing web graphics that require vector-based scalability.
- When you need to convert static JPEG photos into a format compatible with vector design software.

## How it works

- Upload your JPEG file using the file selector.
- Choose your preferred conversion method: Embedded, ImageTracerJS, or Potrace.
- Adjust optional settings like target dimensions and image quality to refine your output.
- Click convert to generate and download your new SVG file.

## Use cases

- Converting logos or icons from JPEG to vector format for high-resolution printing.
- Preparing web assets that need to remain sharp on high-DPI displays.
- Creating scalable design elements from existing photographic textures.

## Frequently asked questions

### What is the difference between Embedded and Vector Traced methods?

Embedded keeps the original pixel data within an SVG wrapper, while Vector Traced methods convert pixels into mathematical paths for true scalability.

### Can I resize the image during conversion?

Yes, you can specify a target width and height in pixels, with an option to preserve the original aspect ratio.

### Is there a file size limit?

Yes, the tool supports JPEG files up to 10MB.

### Does this tool support other image formats?

Currently, this tool is specifically optimized for JPEG and JPG file inputs.

### What is the recommended quality setting?

The default quality is set to 90, which provides an excellent balance between file size and visual clarity for embedded images.
