TEX at a glance
TEX
Convert to TEX when the destination workflow expects source for LaTeX or TeX-based publishing rather than a finished office document.
It is the right target for papers, theses, technical manuals, books, and any content that will be typeset with strong control over equations, references, and print layout.
Use TEX when structured source and compile-time publishing matter more than immediate WYSIWYG editing.
SVG at a glance
SVG
Convert to SVG when the graphic is primarily lines, shapes, text, or flat illustration and needs to scale cleanly across devices.
It is the best target for logos, icons, schematics, UI assets, charts, floor plans, and technical diagrams that may be edited again or embedded on the web.
Use SVG when file sharpness and downstream styling matter more than photographic realism.
For photos or complex raster artwork, PNG, WebP, or AVIF are usually better; SVG is for vector-native content and browser-friendly graphics.

What changes when converting TEX to SVG?
This conversion changes how the format behaves in downstream tools and delivery environments.
Size profile changes from medium in TEX to small in SVG. Quality profile changes from depends in TEX to scalable in SVG. Editability profile changes from moderate in TEX to high in SVG. Compatibility profile changes from broad in TEX to moderate in SVG. Archival profile changes from strong in TEX to good in SVG. Workflow profile changes from exchange in TEX to design in SVG.
Moving to SVG adds vector scaling.
What should I review after converting TEX to SVG?
Check the exported file for Complex effects and fonts can render differently across tools.; Not every downstream print or legacy design workflow treats SVG equally well..
