SVG Optimizer
An online tool to optimize SVG code and reduce file size.
How to Use the SVG Optimizer
Paste your SVG code into the text area and click "Optimize" to remove unnecessary comments, metadata, empty groups, and more to reduce file size. Use the checkboxes to toggle individual optimization options on/off. The "Beautify" button formats the SVG with indentation without optimizing. After optimization, you can preview the SVG, copy the output, or download the file.
About SVG Optimization
SVG files are XML-based, so they often contain information unnecessary for display, such as editor-added comments, metadata, default-value attributes, and empty group elements. Removing these alone can reduce file size by 20-60%. This is useful for improving website performance and optimizing SVG icons.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q. What optimizations are performed?
A. Comment removal, XML metadata removal, empty group element removal, unnecessary attribute removal (attributes with default values), and extra whitespace removal. These reduce file size without changing the SVG appearance.
Q. Can optimization break SVG display?
A. Generally, only safe optimizations that do not affect display are performed. However, in rare cases, attributes or IDs referenced by CSS may be affected. Please check the preview after optimization.
Q. Is my input data safe?
A. All optimization processing is completed within your browser. SVG data is never sent to any server.
