PNG to EPS Converter

Trace a PNG into real vector shapes and download an EPS file that Illustrator, CorelDRAW, print shops and sign makers can scale to any size.

Why most PNG to EPS files are still blurry

Many online converters wrap your PNG inside an EPS container. The file name ends in .eps, but the content is the same grid of pixels, so it gets blurry the moment a printer enlarges it. A print shop asking for an EPS usually wants vector artwork. VectorMaker traces the shapes in your PNG first and then writes them as filled paths, so the EPS stays sharp on a business card and on a banner.

How to convert PNG to EPS

  1. Drop the PNG above. The Auto preset looks at the image and picks the number of colors. Logos, icons and flat illustrations work best.
  2. Check the preview. If small details disappear, raise Detail. If you see loose specks, lower it. Use Colors to merge or split shades.
  3. Set Output width in millimeters or inches if you need an exact print size. Leave it empty to keep 96 pixels per inch.
  4. Click Download EPS. The same result is also available as SVG.

What is inside the EPS

  • Format: EPS 3.0 (PostScript level 2) with a bounding box, one page and no external fonts or images.
  • Shapes: one filled path per color, built from straight lines and Bezier curves. Holes, such as the inside of a letter O, stay empty.
  • Color: RGB fills, one per color in the preview. Ask your printer if they need CMYK or spot colors; Illustrator and CorelDRAW can convert the swatches in a few clicks.
  • Size: 96 pixels per inch by default, or exactly the width you set.

Opening the EPS in common software

  • Adobe Illustrator: open the file directly. Each color is a compound path you can recolor or edit.
  • CorelDRAW: use File, Import and choose the EPS. Ungroup to edit single colors.
  • Affinity Designer: open or place the EPS.
  • Inkscape: EPS import needs Ghostscript. If Inkscape refuses the file, download the SVG instead, which Inkscape opens natively.
  • Sign, vinyl and engraving software: most programs import EPS. For Cricut Design Space use the SVG, since Cricut does not accept EPS uploads.

Honest limits

Tracing works from the pixels you give it. A small or heavily compressed PNG gives rough edges, so use the largest version of the logo you have. Photos turn into posterized color areas, not a photorealistic picture. Gradients, soft shadows and partial transparency become flat color steps because the EPS holds solid fills only. The file has no preview thumbnail, so a few page layout programs show a gray box until you print or export.

Frequently asked questions

Is the EPS a real vector file?

Yes. Every shape is a filled path made of lines and Bezier curves. There is no pixel image inside, so it scales to any size without blur.

Is PNG to EPS free?

Yes. Converting one image up to 2 megapixels and downloading the EPS is free, with no sign-up and no watermark.

Does a transparent PNG stay transparent?

Yes. Transparent areas are not traced, so the EPS only contains your artwork. EPS has no partial transparency, so soft shadows and glows become solid color steps.

Which programs open the EPS?

Adobe Illustrator, CorelDRAW, Affinity Designer and most sign and cutting software import it. Inkscape opens EPS when Ghostscript is installed.

Are my images uploaded?

No. Tracing and the EPS file are made in your browser. The image never leaves your device.
