SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) is a vector image format that can be searched, indexed, scripted, compressed, and can be scaled in size without loss of quality. In this article, I will share the following two ways to convert a PDF file to SVG format using Free Spire.PDF for Java.
● Converting each page of the PDF file into a single SVG file.
● Converting multiple pages of the PDF file into one SVG file.
Import jar dependency
Method 1: Download the free library and unzip it. Then add the Spire.Pdf.jar file to your project as dependency.
Method 2: Directly add the jar dependency to maven project by adding the following configurations to the pom.xml.

Sample 1: Converting a 3-page PDF file to 3 SVG files
import com.spire.pdf.*;
public class ToSVG {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Load the PDF file
PdfDocument pdf = new PdfDocument();
pdf.loadFromFile("Island.pdf");
//Save to SVG image
pdf.saveToFile("ToSVG.svg", FileFormat.SVG);
pdf.close();
}
}
Sample 2: Converting a 3-page PDF file to 1 SVG file
import com.spire.pdf.*;
public class PDFtoSVG {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
String inputPath = "Island.pdf";
PdfDocument document = new PdfDocument();
document.loadFromFile(inputPath);
document.getConvertOptions().setOutputToOneSvg(true);
document.saveToFile("output.svg", FileFormat.SVG);
document.close();
}
}
