Want to learn more about how Adobe Illustrator works? Check out my Illustrator Explainer Series - a comprehensive collection of over 100 videos where I go over every tool, feature and function and explain what it is, how it works, and why it's useful. Video Tutorialįor a more in-depth explanation of how to save transparent PNG files with Inkscape, watch the video tutorial below where I demonstrate exactly how to do it:

Since the red circle is intersecting with the boudning box around the logo, that intersecting area will also be exported. If you know gimp a bit, you might consider importing your svg with the Gimp path palette. If you’re exporting your PNG based on the selection option, be forewarned that everything within the bounding box of the selection will be exported with it, so make sure your graphic is moved far enough away from all other objects. Tell which area you want to export (page, drawing, selection), which resolution, and finally where.

Your Transparent PNG file should now be ready to go! Check the folder where you saved it for confirmation.

Finally, choose a destination to save your transparent PNG to by clicking the Export As button, name your file whatever you’d like, then click Export.
