Frequently asked questions

Why would I need to convert stroke to fill?

Some laser cutters, cutting plotters, and icon systems don't support (or ignore) the stroke attribute. Converting to fill makes the shape render identically everywhere.

Does it handle SVGs with multiple paths?

Yes, each path and subpath in the SVG is converted individually.

Is my file uploaded to a server?

No, everything is processed entirely in your browser.

Does it support dashed strokes?

This version supports solid strokes only; dashed stroke support may be added later.

A stroked SVG cuts a thin center-line, not the shape you actually see on screen

Laser cutters and cutting plotters follow SVG path coordinates literally — for a stroked shape, that's the invisible center-line, not the visible outline. Converting stroke to fill turns the visible edge itself into the cut path.
