PixelToPath is an open-source application that converts PNG images into scalable vector graphics (SVG) using the Potrace engine. Designed with simplicity in mind, it provides an intuitive graphical interface to adjust vectorization settings such as smoothing, threshold, and curve precision. PixelToPath is available as a standalone executable for Windows (no Python or installation required) and as a source version for Linux and Windows users who prefer customization. Potrace is fully integrated, allowing offline usage with no extra configuration. Whether you're a designer, developer, or hobbyist, PixelToPath makes bitmap-to-vector conversion fast, accessible, and efficient. The project is hosted on GitHub with source code and releases available for download.

As the developer of PixelToPath, my goal was to create a lightweight and easy-to-use tool for converting raster images (like PNG) to vector paths (SVG). I built this because I personally found existing solutions either too complex, too bloated, or not cross-platform enough for simple use cases. PixelToPath uses Potrace under the hood, but wraps it in a friendly interface where you can tweak thresholding, smoothing, and path accuracy without writing any code. I'm actively working on improving it — feedback and suggestions are welcome! Try it and let me know what you'd like to see next.
