JPEG vs SVG: Which Format Should You Use?
JPEG is best for photos; SVG is best for scalable logos, icons, cut files, and graphics with clean shapes.
JPEG is a raster format
JPEG stores pixels, which makes it efficient for photos and complex color gradients. When enlarged, those pixels can become soft or blocky.
SVG is a vector format
SVG stores shapes and paths. It scales cleanly for logos, icons, stickers, charts, and graphics that need crisp edges at many sizes.
