Line art vectorizer
Convert line art to SVG without losing the feel of your lines
This tool is tuned for ink drawings, scans, and clean sketches. It focuses on keeping strokes readable while removing dust and tiny specks. You get an editable SVG that is easy to recolor, scale, and refine.
How to use this Line Art to SVG converter
- 1Upload your line artUse a PNG or JPEG. Scans with a clean background work best. Crop extra borders for faster processing.
- 2Choose a line-art presetStart with Accurate. Use Bold for thicker strokes, Fine detail for thin lines, and Scan presets for paper dust and speckles.
- 3Adjust thresholdHigher includes lighter pencil marks. Lower keeps only darker ink. If the result looks filled in, raise threshold gradually.
- 4Clean specks with turd sizeIncrease turd size to remove tiny dots and scanner noise. This is the quickest fix for messy scans.
- 5Export your SVGDownload the SVG or copy it. Then edit in Illustrator, Inkscape, Figma, or your codebase.
Tips for cleaner line art vectors
Try Line Art: Seal gaps or Scan: Aggressive. Turn policy black often helps connect corners.
Increase turd size. If you still see pepper noise, raise curve tolerance slightly.
Increase threshold to capture light strokes. Consider scanning with higher contrast.
Switch to Fine detail, reduce threshold a bit, and lower curve tolerance so thin lines survive.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best preset for scanned ink drawings?
Start with Scan: Clean to remove dust. If your lines have breaks, switch to Scan: Aggressive or Line Art: Seal gaps.
Why does my SVG look too thick or filled in?
Raise the threshold a bit and increase curve tolerance slightly. If small blobs appear, increase turd size to remove tiny specks.
Can I convert pencil sketches?
Yes, but you may need a higher threshold to include lighter strokes. If the sketch is shaded, try the optional outline extraction presets.
Why do I see “Server busy” and Retry-After?
Vectorization is CPU heavy. We limit concurrency to keep the site stable. The app retries automatically after the suggested delay.
