Import SVG files into Lightroom Classic and convert them in PNG or JPG ?

[shiva108]

Hi to all,

Is there a way to import SVG files into Lightroom Classic and then (bulk) export them in PNG or JPG ?

Thanks in advance for any tip !

(I have a lot of SVG files placed in a lot of sub-folders to convert, so I'd like to avoid doing it manually one by one...)

As far as I know, Lightroom Classic does not work with SVG files.

Thanks for your reply !

Any other way do you konw to bulk convert SVG into PNG or JPG and keep them in their original folder ? Could be a plugin,  module or another app ?

I don't know, but I'm sure your favorite internet search engine knows.

Not in LrC, but Photoshop can do it.

Hi Jim,

Thanks for your reply.

With a script ?

No script needed. Import the SVG and export in whatever format you want:

Converting to JPG will strip any transparency from the SVG file.

One easy method is to use the free XnConvert app. Works well to batch convert svg files (SVG Not mentioned in the link, but worked for my test SVG files > JPG )
