How do I convert SVG to PDF for sharing and printing?
+
Upload the SVG file and the converter renders it onto PDF pages with sensible defaults: A4 / letter size, 1-inch margins, embedded fonts. Multi-page sources (DOCX, EPUB, XLSX) preserve page breaks; single-asset sources (images) get one page each.
Will the SVG to PDF conversion keep my fonts and formatting?
+
Yes for text-bearing SVG (DOCX, ODT, HTML, TXT) — fonts are embedded into the PDF so the output looks identical on every viewer. Image-only SVG (JPG, PNG) is centered on the page; text-layout is N/A there.
Can I merge multiple SVG files into one PDF?
+
Yes — drop multiple SVG files into the upload zone and choose the "merge into one PDF" option. They appear as sequential pages in the PDF in upload order; drag-to-reorder is supported before conversion runs.
What page size and orientation will the PDF use?
+
Defaults: A4 portrait (international) or letter portrait (US). The advanced options expose page-size (A3, A4, A5, letter, legal, tabloid, custom) and orientation (portrait / landscape). For image SVG, "auto-fit" picks orientation to match the source aspect ratio.
Will hyperlinks in my SVG survive the PDF conversion?
+
Yes for SVG formats that carry real hyperlink metadata (DOCX, ODT, HTML, EPUB). Image SVG (JPG, PNG, TIFF) has no link metadata to preserve. The PDF uses standard PDF anchor syntax so links work in every modern PDF reader.
Is the resulting PDF searchable with real selectable text?
+
Yes when the SVG contains real text (DOCX, ODT, HTML, TXT, EPUB). Image-based SVG produces an image-only PDF; run /pdf-ocr/ afterward to make it text-searchable via optical character recognition.
Can I password-protect the PDF after conversion?
+
Not in this tool directly — convert SVG to PDF first, then use the /pdf-* tools to add a password, watermark, or restrict editing / printing permissions on the output.
How big will the PDF file be?
+
Depends on the SVG content. A 10-page DOCX with embedded fonts produces a 200-400 KB PDF. A 10-image JPG batch at full resolution produces a 5-20 MB PDF. The advanced "compress images in PDF" toggle recompresses embedded images at JPG quality-85.
Is my SVG file private during PDF conversion?
+
Yes — same privacy model as every conversion: isolated workers, automatic deletion within minutes, no human review of content, no training corpus.
Will the PDF pass print-shop preflight (300 DPI, CMYK)?
+
Defaults are RGB / 72 DPI (screen-optimized). For commercial print, switch the advanced options to CMYK / 300 DPI and the converter re-renders text at print resolution and converts embedded images to CMYK colorspace.
Does the converter handle scanned SVG images?
+
Yes — a scanned-page SVG (JPG, PNG, TIFF) converts straight to PDF. To make the resulting PDF text-searchable, follow up with /pdf-ocr/ to run OCR over the scanned pages and embed the recognized text layer.
Can I convert SVG to PDF and email it directly?
+
Not from the converter UI itself. After download, attach the PDF to your usual email client. The PDF is portable and works with every modern PDF reader (Acrobat, Preview, Chrome, Edge, mobile readers).
