Convert InDesign IDML to SVG
Drop an .idml or its package folder and export a genuine vector SVG, with live text you can still edit or fully outlined paths for perfect portability.
Free, right in your browser. No account, no upload, no Adobe license.
Real vector SVG, not a traced bitmap
Almost nothing converts IDML to a usable SVG. Most tools rasterize the page and wrap it in an <image> tag, which is just a picture in disguise. Bluepic reconstructs the layout as actual vector geometry, so shapes, strokes and text come out as scalable SVG that stays razor-sharp at any size.
You choose how text is handled. Live text keeps every string editable and selectable in the SVG (great for the web and further editing), while outlined converts text to paths so it renders identically anywhere, with no font dependency. Everything runs in your browser. To generate SVGs programmatically, the same renderer is available over the API with a vectorizeText option.
Frequently asked questions
Is this a real vector SVG or a rasterized image?
A real vector. Shapes and text are reconstructed as SVG geometry, so the file scales infinitely without blurring. It is not a screenshot wrapped in SVG.
What is the difference between live text and outlined?
Live text stays as editable, selectable text (with the font referenced) and is ideal for the web. Outlined converts each glyph to a vector path so it looks identical everywhere, even without the font installed.
Can I use the SVG on a website?
Yes. The live-text SVG is standard, self-contained markup you can inline or embed directly in a page.
Does it cost anything or need an account?
No. Conversion is free and happens entirely in your browser, with nothing uploaded.
