Our generator offers both PNG and SVG downloads. They differ in how the image is stored — and in what each is best at.
PNG: pixels
A PNG stores the image as a grid of colored dots. Enlarge it past its original size and it pixelates.
Best for: Word/PowerPoint documents, social media posts, emails, websites, and smaller print jobs (a 1024×1024 file prints sharply up to about 8×8 cm at 300 DPI).
SVG: vectors
An SVG stores the image as geometry, so it stays perfectly sharp at any size — and the file is usually smaller too.
Best for: all print work, especially large formats: print-shop orders, storefront signs, stickers, and further editing in design tools like Illustrator or Canva.
The short version
- Screen use → PNG
- Print shop or signage → SVG
- Not sure → download both; they're equally free
Both files encode identical data and scan with identical results.
