P: How to export to SVG from Photoshop?

I have a PS file that has text that I converted to a shape, plus another shape. I want to convert that to an SVG file, but, when I use the Explort As dialog, the only export file options are GIF, PNG and JPG. If I do Save As, the only options are Photoshop, Large Document Format, Photoshop PDF, and TIFF. 

 

I searched the help system, there's nothing there that I can find. Did they remove SVG export from Photoshop?? I sure hope not. I have Photoshop 22.4.3.

Hi everyone,

 

I understand how difficult it must be not to be able to export into an SVG format through Photoshop. However, I wanted to suggest trying Adobe Express as a possible solution for converting your images into the desired format: https://www.adobe.com/express/feature/image/convert/svg?cgen=JQVGW3QK&mv=other

 

I genuinely hope this helps in your work. Let us know your feedback.

 

Thanks,

Mohit

Hi all,

 

Export to SVG format functionality discontinued from Photoshop 22.5 version in August'2021 last year. This feature in Photoshop has always been experimental and discontinued due to low usage and limitations.

 

If you still want to export your Photoshop document as SVG, you can follow any of these workarounds here: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/export-artboards-layers.html#discontinue-export-as-svg

I don't like the idea that PHOTOSHOP 2024 cannot export a simple square in SVG.

Different tools for different tasks -- Photoshop is a pixel-based raster image editor; not a math-based vector graphics app.

 

Use Adobe Express FREE SVG Converter below to generate SVGs from your JPG or PNG files.  No purchase necessary.

Hope that helps.

I don't know if people still got the problem, but there is a simple solution: go to Files > Export > Export settings
In the settings window popping up, go to the bottom under "Settings" place a checkmark at the "use older/earlier "export as" and the hit "OK". now you can export as SVG 🙂

OBS sorry if my english or the actions aint called exactly what it's really called, i got my photoshop in danish. but hope you guys get the way to change it 🙂 Best regards
