Why Convert SVG to ICO?

SVG gives you resolution-independent shapes; ICO gives you native icon compatibility:

  • Multi-size support: Bundle 16–256 px variants in one file.
  • Favicon standard: Widely recognized by browsers.
  • Windows compatibility: Native format for desktop/app icons.
  • Transparency: Smooth edges with alpha preserved.

How to Convert SVG to ICO Online

  1. Click Upload SVG and select your vector file.
  2. Wait for rasterization and optimization.
  3. Click Download ICO to save your icon.

We generate common sizes automatically for sharp results.

ICO Format Specifications

  • Standard sizes: 16×16, 32×32, 48×48, 64×64, 128×128, 256×256 px
  • Color depth: Up to 32-bit RGBA
  • Compression: PNG-compressed entries for 32-bit icons (Vista+)
  • Structure: Header + multiple image entries in one file

Supported Limits & Formats

  • Accepted input: SVG (image/svg+xml)
  • Maximum file size: up to 16 MB per file
  • Output: ICO (.ico, MIME image/x-icon)

Troubleshooting

  • Favicon not showing: Clear cache and ensure /favicon.ico is linked via <link rel="icon" href="/favicon.ico">.
  • Fonts/filters: Non-embedded fonts, complex filters, or external assets may rasterize differently. Convert text to outlines and inline assets in the SVG.
  • Cropping: Use a square artboard with padding to avoid clipping after rasterization.
  • Upload fails: Ensure SVG ≤ 16 MB and valid image/svg+xml.

Best Practices

  • Design on a 512×512 or 1024×1024 square canvas for clean downscales.
  • Keep shapes bold; avoid thin hairlines at small sizes.
  • Use high contrast for readability in 16–32 px icons.
