Frequently asked questions
Is it safe to convert my files here?
Yes. Conversion happens entirely in your browser. Your files are never uploaded to a server, so nobody else can see them.
Is it free? Are there limits?
It's completely free, with no sign-up, watermarks or daily limits. The only limit is your device's memory for very large files.
Can I convert many AI files at once?
Yes. Drop as many files as you like; they're converted one after another and you can download them all as a ZIP.
Will converting AI to AVIF reduce quality?
Pages are drawn fresh at the resolution you pick, so text and vector shapes stay sharp. Use 300 dpi for print-quality images.
Does AVIF keep transparency?
Yes, AVIF supports transparency and it's kept.
Which browsers does the AI to AVIF converter work in?
It works in the latest Safari, Chrome and Edge, on computers and phones.
What about documents with several pages?
