Frequently asked questions

What is SVG to CSS data URI conversion?

It converts an SVG into a data URI that can be used directly in CSS as a background-image.

What are the benefits of using SVG data URIs?

They reduce HTTP requests, improve load speed, and keep icons bundled with your CSS.

Are there file size limitations?

There is no strict limit, but data URIs increase CSS size. Small icons under 10KB are ideal.

Can I use the output on any element?

Yes. Apply the background-image CSS to any element and control sizing with background-size.

Will SVG styling be preserved?

Yes. The conversion preserves colors and styling embedded in the SVG.

Is this compatible with modern browsers?

Yes. SVG data URIs work in all modern browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge.

Embed SVGs directly in CSS to reduce requests and speed up page loads. This tool outputs a ready-to-use background-image rule with safe encoding.

When to use data URIs

  • Small icons and decorative UI elements.
  • Critical UI graphics that should load instantly.
  • Projects that want fewer external requests.
  • Elements that do not need dynamic SVG styling.

Best practices

  • Optimize the SVG before conversion.
  • Use background-size: contain for scalable icons.
  • Keep data URIs small to avoid bloated CSS.
  • Test on light and dark backgrounds.
