## Good to know

- Vectors are rendered at high resolution (300 DPI or 2048px). Set a width under Options if you need a specific size.
- AI files are typically used for editable vector artwork from Illustrator, while PNG is best for screenshots, logos, UI assets and any graphic that needs sharp edges or a transparent background.
- This conversion runs on Ghostscript in an isolated cloud sandbox. Files are encrypted in transit and deleted automatically.

**AI:** AI is Adobe Illustrator's native vector format. Modern AI files are PDF-compatible, which lets them be converted without Illustrator.

**PNG:** PNG is a lossless raster format that keeps every pixel exactly as it was and supports full alpha transparency.
