Questions

How do I reduce SVG file size?
Paste your SVG markup into the input field and the minifier will remove comments, editor metadata, unnecessary attributes, and whitespace to produce a compact SVG that renders identically in browsers.
Will minified SVGs look the same?
Yes, the minifier only removes non-visible elements like comments, metadata, and extra whitespace. All visual elements, paths, colors, and transformations are preserved so the SVG renders identically.
Does the SVG minifier remove Illustrator or Inkscape metadata?
Yes, editor-specific metadata, XML namespaces from design tools, and comments added by Illustrator, Inkscape, or Figma are stripped during minification.
How much can SVG minification reduce file size?
Results vary depending on the file, but SVGs exported from design tools often contain significant metadata and whitespace. Typical savings range from 20% to 50% of the original file size.
