SVG to ICO
Free online SVG to ICO converter. Convert SVG to ICO and get an ICO favicon and Windows icon holding every size from 16 to 256 px. Reads the SVG at any size, so the result is as sharp as you need. Runs in your browser: nothing uploaded, no sign-up.
Works with: Illustrator · CorelDRAW · Inkscape · Affinity Designer
Drop several files at once to convert the whole folder in one pass. Got a different format? A PNG, JPG, HEIC, PDF, SVG or DXF still comes out as ICO.
Or paste SVG code
× removes a colour and its shapes; click a swatch to change it. Every format follows.

Batch
Every file is traced on its own at its own resolution, with the settings in the panel. A file converted here comes out identical to the same file converted by itself.

Image quality
PNG is always lossless and full resolution.
See it on your product
Put this artwork on a 3D mug, tumbler, sign, phone case or canvas, turn it all the way round, or drop it onto a photograph of your own blank. The preview page has the product picker, the colours and the placement controls.
Open the preview and renderHow it works
Upload the vector file
SVG and EPS are read directly, their existing geometry is kept rather than re-traced.
Pick the output size
Print formats carry a real bounding box in points, so a print shop gets the size you intended.
Download
Preview the result first; EPS is shown parsed back, which is what a print shop will do to it.
SVG to ICO converter: free and online
Convert SVG to ICO in your browser: drop in a SVG file and download the ICO. The file is converted on your own device and never uploaded, so this svg to ico converter is safe for private and confidential files.
SVG is the vector format of the web and of cutting machines: shapes and curves that stay sharp at any size. ICO is the Windows icon and website favicon format, holding several sizes in one file.
Paths stay paths: shapes, colours and curves carry across without being turned into pixels, so the result is still sharp at any size.

Why it matters
Geometry preserved
A vector source is not run through the raster tracer. Its paths are read and re-emitted, so nothing is thrown away and re-approximated.
Real physical bounds
EPS and PDF output carry a bounding box in PostScript points sized to your stated width, not left in pixels for someone else to guess at.
Transforms handled
EPS files from Illustrator transform nearly every path. Those matrices are applied properly, including nested gsave/grestore, so nothing lands at the wrong scale.
Even-odd fills
Holes are written with the same fill rule the geometry was traced with, so a counter stays a counter.
Questions
How do I convert SVG to ICO?
Drop your SVG file on this page, check the preview, and press Download. The ICO is made in a few seconds, with no sign-up.
Is my SVG file uploaded anywhere?
No. The svg to ico conversion runs in your browser, on your own device. The file never leaves it.
Does this keep my layers?
Colour layers are preserved as separate paths. Named layers and groups from the source application are not carried across.
What about embedded images?
An EPS or SVG containing an embedded bitmap is reported rather than silently half-converted, only the real vector geometry is converted.
Which PDF version?
PDF 1.4, with real path geometry. It is not a bitmap wrapped in a PDF container.
