Frequently Asked Questions

How much can SVG optimization reduce file size?
Typical reductions range from 20-60% depending on the original SVG complexity. Files with extensive metadata, comments, or inefficient markup see the largest improvements.
Will optimization affect visual appearance?
No, optimization only removes unnecessary code while preserving the visual appearance. Path precision can be adjusted if slight visual changes are acceptable for better compression.
What gets removed during optimization?
Comments, metadata, empty attributes, unused namespaces, unnecessary whitespace, and redundant elements. You can customize which optimizations to apply.
Should I remove width/height attributes?
Removing width/height makes SVGs responsive but may require CSS sizing. Keep them if you need fixed dimensions, remove for scalable icons.
Is the optimization reversible?
Some optimizations like removing comments and metadata are irreversible. Always keep backups of original files if you might need the removed information.
