Question 1

What does the SVG Editor & Optimizer do?

Accepted Answer

The SVG Editor & Optimizer lets you paste or upload SVG code, see a live preview, optimize/minify the SVG to reduce file size, extract all colors used in the SVG, and export the SVG as a Data URI, Base64 string, or CSS background-image property.

Question 2

How does SVG optimization work?

Accepted Answer

The optimizer removes unnecessary metadata, comments, editor-specific attributes (from Inkscape, Sketch, etc.), empty groups, XML declarations, and excessive whitespace. This typically reduces SVG file size by 10-50% without changing the visual appearance.

Question 3

Is the SVG Editor free to use?

Accepted Answer

Yes, QTool.io's SVG Editor & Optimizer is completely free. It runs entirely in your browser with no server uploads. Your SVG data stays private. No signup or account required.

Question 4

Can I convert SVG to Base64 or Data URI?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the tool provides one-click conversion to Data URI (for inline use in HTML), Base64 encoding, and CSS background-image syntax. Each format can be copied to clipboard with a single click.
