SVG to PNG conversion using HTML5 canvas

2:11 PM
In this article I am going to explain SVG to PNG conversion using HTML5 Canvas.

As shown in the above picture there are 2 steps.
1. Get SVG on HTML5 canvas
2. Convert Canvas to PNG image

Get SVG on HTML5 canvas

// get Canvas Element
var myCanvas = document.getElementById('canvasid');
// get 2D context
var myCanvasContext = myCanvas.getContext('2d');
// Load up our image.
var source = new Image();
source.src = '/img/twitter.svg';
// Render our SVG image to the canvas once it loads.
source.onload = function(){
   myCanvasContext.drawImage(source,0,0,200,200);
}

Convert Canvas to PNG image

$("#resultImage").attr("src",myCanvas.toDataURL("image/png"));
Completed code:

     $("#resultImage").attr("src",myCanvas.toDataURL("image/png"));
 }
});
