Remove backgrounds and crop out unnecessary elements before converting.
Check the preview
Review your converted SVG before saving to ensure it captured all the details you need.
Use Edit mode for refinements
If the conversion isn't perfect, switch to Edit mode and describe what you want to change.
Try different source formats
If one format doesn't convert well, try saving your original image in a different format (PNG often works best).
Simplify complex images first
For photographs or detailed images, consider using image editing software to simplify the image before converting.
