Remove White Background

Turn a logo, icon, clip art or scanned drawing on white into a transparent PNG that sits cleanly on any background.

How to remove a white background

  1. 1Choose an image with a white background.
  2. 2Adjust how close to white gets removed and the edge softness.
  3. 3Download the transparent PNG.

Clean edges

Pixels close to white become fully transparent, and a soft band above that fades out gradually, so anti-aliased edges don't keep a white halo.

Know the limits

White parts inside the design (like the white of an eye) become transparent too. For photos of people or products, use Remove Background, which uses AI.

Trim

Turn on trimming to cut away the empty space around the design.
