What is BaseVector?
BaseVector is a free online SVG to base64 converter that transforms Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) files into base64-encoded data URIs. These encoded strings can be used directly in multiple formats: raw Base64 strings, CSS background-image rules, and HTML img tags. This eliminates extra HTTP requests and lets you embed icons and images inline — ideal for icon systems, CSS sprites, and performance optimization.
Simply drag and drop an SVG file into the upload area (or click to browse), and BaseVector instantly generates ready-to-paste code in your chosen format with a live preview. This free online tool supports files up to 4MB and includes features like zoom control, format minification, copy to clipboard, and download options.
