Protected Vector Preview
No account is required to create or view the protected preview. The preview accepts one PNG, JPEG, or WebP file up to 4 MiB; other source formats must be exported or converted to one of those formats first. Editable SVG export requires paid or complimentary access. Review the exported SVG in the appropriate downstream software; non-SVG formats and machine instructions require separate conversion.

AI is Adobe Illustrator's native file format — a PostScript-based vector container used across professional design, print, and branding workflows. Converting a PNG to AI means vectorizing the raster image into editable paths that Illustrator can fully work with.
The protected preview is available without an account; editable SVG export requires paid or complimentary access. Open it in Adobe Illustrator (File > Open). Immediately save as AI (File > Save As > Adobe Illustrator.ai). The file is now a native Illustrator document with editable paths, colors, and layers.
Best PNG inputs for AI conversion: — Logos on white or transparent backgrounds. — Flat-color illustrations or icons. — Clipart and vector-style graphics exported as PNG.
This protected workflow exports authorized SVG only; use a separate downstream tool for other file formats or machine instructions.
After authorized SVG export, use a separate downstream tool to create AI and inspect that file for the intended workflow.
