Lower resolutions reduce file size. The video will not be enlarged.

Bitrate

Higher means better sound and a larger file. “Auto” keeps the bitrate of the original (at least 128 kbit/s); from lossless files it uses the format’s high-quality setting.

PDF/A-2b embeds all fonts so the file looks the same in many years; required by many courts and public offices.

Scales every sheet so it fits on a single page instead of being split across several.

Sheets

CSV and TSV hold one table: with “Every sheet” each sheet becomes its own file, together in a ZIP.

Separator

Excel in many European languages expects a semicolon; most other programs a comma.

Convert on our server?

If you continue, the file is uploaded over an encrypted connection and converted on our server. You can keep using the site meanwhile. The original is deleted as soon as it is converted; the result is kept for 7 days so you can download it, and you can delete it at any time. Files are never shared or used for anything else.

Your images are processed in your browser and are not uploaded. If a file is too large for your browser or in a format it can’t handle, we ask before converting it on our server. The original is deleted right after conversion; the result is kept for 7 days for you to download, unless you delete it sooner. Privacy details

How to use: SVG to ICO

  1. 1 Choose or drag in one or more SVG files.
  2. 2 Choose the output size: the drawing's own size, a multiple of it, or an exact width in pixels.
  3. 3 Choose which icon sizes to include; 16, 32 and 48 pixels are right for a website favicon.
  4. 4 Click Convert. The gear button next to a file opens its options; files you add afterwards are converted straight away.
  5. 5 Download the ICO files one by one, or all at once as a ZIP file.

About this tool

SVG is a vector format: it describes shapes instead of pixels, so it stays sharp at any size. Many programs, forms and social networks don't accept SVG files, though. ICO is the Windows icon format, also used for website favicons. One ICO file can hold the same icon in several sizes.

Converting to ICO is useful for website favicons and Windows icons. Because an SVG has no fixed pixel size, you choose how large the ICO should be. The drawing is rendered at exactly that size, so it stays sharp. You can also paste SVG code directly instead of choosing a file. Images that aren't square are centred on a transparent square, so nothing is cut off or stretched.

Files are converted in your browser and are not uploaded to a server. If a file is too large for your device, the tool explains why and asks before sending it anywhere. Hidden metadata such as the GPS location is not copied into the ICO.

Frequently asked questions

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. The conversion runs in your own browser, so your files stay on your device. Only if a file is too large for your browser does the tool offer server processing, and it asks you first.

Is the conversion lossless?

Yes. ICO stores every pixel exactly, so the image looks identical to the SVG.

How big will the ICO image be?

By default it uses the size written in the SVG (or its viewBox). You can choose 2×, 3×, 4× or 8× that size, or an exact width; the height follows the proportions. The drawing is rendered at that size, so it stays sharp.

Which sizes should a favicon have?

For a website favicon, 16, 32 and 48 pixels are enough. For a Windows icon choose all sizes from 16 to 256 pixels. All chosen sizes are stored in one ICO file.

Is the image's metadata kept?

No. The ICO is created from the image pixels only, so EXIF data such as the GPS location, camera model and capture time is not copied. This is useful before sharing images online.
