JPG is an image format standardized in 1992 by the JPEG committee. It's commonly used for photographs, email attachments, web thumbnails.

Will converting JPG to SVG reduce quality?

No further quality loss occurs. JPG already lost detail during its original compression, but converting to lossless SVG prevents any additional degradation.

How much larger will the SVG file be?

Typically 3-5x larger than the original JPG, since SVG preserves all pixel data without compression.

Can I add transparency to my JPG file?

No — transparency must be added by editing the image after conversion. The converted SVG file will not have transparent areas.

Is this conversion reversible?

Yes — JPG and SVG are both lossless, so you can convert back and forth without quality loss.
