WPG to SVGZ Converter
Processing entirely on your device — large files may take a moment.
WPG is the embedded-graphics format of WordPerfect Office — vector and bitmap drawings from 1990s documents, still found in legal and government archives. Convert SVGZ exactly like SVG — the converter inflates it first — or gzip an SVG back into SVGZ for shipping.
iLoveConverter processes everything locally on your computer, which makes it private and fast: no upload wait, no server storage, no limits. Add as many files as you like — batch conversion is built in.

About the WPG format
WPG is the graphics format of WordPerfect Office, the word processor that dominated North American law offices and government agencies through the 1990s. WPG files embed both vector line art and bitmaps, which is why they still surface inside archived legal filings and municipal records.
Nothing modern reads WPG natively. Converting WPG to PNG rescues those drawings into a format that drops into any document, wiki or image library without a WordPerfect installation.
+Strengths
- ✓Holds both vector and bitmap art
- ✓Compact for its era
- ✓Widely present in legal archives
!Limitations
- −Legacy format, no modern support
- −Vector data may rasterize on convert
About the SVGZ format
SVGZ is what every SVG is on a well-configured server: the same XML vector content run through gzip. XML compresses spectacularly, so an SVGZ is typically 70-80% smaller than the SVG it came from — which is why Apache and nginx can serve it transparently with a Content-Encoding header.
Converting SVGZ to PNG or JPG simply inflates it first — the vector content is byte-identical to its SVG parent. The other direction (vectorize a raster, then gzip) produces a deploy-ready compressed asset.
+Strengths
- ✓70-80% smaller than the same SVG
- ✓Transparent to browsers via Content-Encoding
- ✓Full SVG vector fidelity
!Limitations
- −Some tools refuse the double extension
- −Needs gunzip before hand-editing
- −MIME confusion on misconfigured servers
Why convert WPG to SVGZ?
There is a concrete reason this conversion exists: Legacy format, no modern support SVGZ sidesteps that — 70-80% smaller than the same SVG If that is your situation, the tool above settles it in seconds, entirely on your device.
Frequently asked questions
Is this WPG to SVGZ converter really free?
Yes — completely free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no daily conversion limits. The site is supported by advertising.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion runs entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly, so your files never leave your device — that is what makes it instant and private.
Does it work on Windows, Mac, iPhone and Android?
Yes. Anything with a modern browser works: Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS. No software installation is required.
Will I lose quality converting WPG to SVGZ?
No — SVGZ is a lossless format, so every pixel of the converted image matches your original WPG file. You can also adjust the quality/size balance before converting when the target format supports compression.
Will transparent areas survive the conversion to SVGZ?
Transparency is kept whenever SVGZ actually supports an alpha channel. If the target format has none (like JPG), transparent areas are flattened onto a white background — that is a property of the format, not of this tool.
What happens to EXIF data and other metadata?
Conversions here re-encode the image, and re-encoding generally does not carry the original metadata over. If the EXIF data of your WPG files matters (camera model, GPS, timestamps), keep the original file as the master and treat the converted copy as the shareable version.
