Convert your ICO file to SVG

to

Create vector image files with our easy-to-use and free tool. Our tool lets you upload a ICO (Icon) file and, from this, create a vector-based SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) file that you can then download and edit within vector file editors or use for high-definition printing applications. If you have multiple ICO files to convert, then our tool can also batch convert ICO files too. Currently, our tool supports up to 25 conversions at a time.

Options are available to specify or remove a background color if the source ICO image does not contain a transparent background. Our tool can attempt to determine the background color automatically, or you can manually specify the background color to remove.

Description

The ICO file is an image format that started life on Microsoft Windows 1.0 and was used exclusively for storing image icons used by the operating system. Back then, ICO files were limited in size to 32x32 pixels with only two colors. With subsequent versions of Windows, the format has been amended and upgraded to support larger images with more colors.

Although the initial ICO format was not compressed due to their already small sizes (and limited computing power to decompress them in real-time), as the size of image icons has increased over the years, Microsoft recommends that for larger icon files, PNG compression be used for storing the raster data.

Description

Introduced by the W3C organization in 2001, the SVG file format grew to become the standard web file format for vector-based 2D images and is supported by the majority of modern web browsers. SVG files are XML-based text files containing 2D vector elements such as paths, simple shapes, colors, and more.

The SVG format itself, while primarily a vector format, can include raster images as well as text. Due to their vector-based format, SVG files lend themselves very well to website company logos and icons. A compressed format of SVG also exists, which uses the extension SVGZ and employs the GZIP compression algorithm.
