What changes when you convert AI to WEBP

  • AI artwork is drawn from shapes, so it is rendered to pixels at high resolution (up to 4096 px on the longest side) before it is saved as WEBP. Edges stay crisp.
  • Both formats support transparency, so see-through areas stay transparent.
  • Your AI is a still image, so the WEBP will also be a still image.
