02 / what you get

What happens to your data

Kept

  • The largest picture inside the icon is used, so you get the best quality it holds
  • One PDF page that is exactly the size of the picture (not A4), with the image filling it
  • The image is embedded without extra compression, so nothing is lost

Good to know

  • Icons are small, usually 256×256 pixels at most, so the result is small and looks blurry if you enlarge it.
  • The PDF contains only the picture. Text in the image is not recognized, so it cannot be selected or searched (there is no OCR).
  • One image becomes one page. To combine several images in one PDF, use the PDF tools of your viewer after converting.

03 / formats

ICO vs PDF

ICO

An ICO file bundles one or more small icon images into a single file, traditionally used for Windows application and file-type icons. It's still the required format for website favicons today.

Used in: Website favicons · Windows app icons · Desktop shortcuts

PDF

A PDF file locks in exact layout, fonts, and pagination so it looks identical on every device — the standard for sharing finished documents, contracts, and anything meant to be printed rather than edited.

Used in: Sharing finished documents · Printing · Contracts & forms
