Why Merge SVG Paths?
Reduce file size: Combining multiple SVG paths into one can significantly reduce your SVG file size, making your website load faster.
Simplify SVG structure: A single path is easier to manipulate, animate, and maintain in your code than multiple scattered paths.
Improve performance: Fewer DOM elements mean better rendering performance in browsers, especially for complex graphics.
Easier CSS styling: Apply fills, strokes, and animations to a single path element instead of managing multiple paths.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an SVG path?
An SVG path is a series of drawing commands that create shapes in SVG files. The <path> element is one of the most powerful elements in SVG for creating complex shapes.
Will merging paths change my SVG appearance?
In most cases, no. The visual appearance remains the same when paths use the same colors. However, if your SVG uses multiple fill or stroke colors, see the question below about multi-colored SVGs.
What happens with multi-colored SVGs?
When merging paths with different colors, all paths will inherit the color of the first path. This means details with different colors may become less visible or disappear. The tool will warn you when this happens. For best results, use this tool with single-color SVGs or SVGs where overlapping paths create cutouts (which will be preserved using fill-rule="evenodd").
Is this tool free to use?
Yes! SVG Path Merger is completely free to use with no limitations, no registration required, and no hidden costs.
Can I use this for commercial projects?
Absolutely! You can use this tool for any purpose, including commercial projects, without any restrictions.
What browsers are supported?
