Adobe Illustrator allows users to export AI files as PNG while preserving high-resolution details. Selecting "Export As" and choosing PNG ensures transparency and quality retention. Adjusting the resolution and anti-aliasing settings optimizes output.

Which software is best for AI to PNG conversion?

Adobe Illustrator is the most reliable tool for AI to PNG conversion due to native support, but alternatives like Affinity Designer, GIMP, and online converters like Vertopal provide viable solutions with format compatibility.
