02 / what you get
What happens to your data
Kept
- A transparent background stays transparent where the new format allows it
- One .ico file with six sizes inside: 16, 32, 48, 64, 128 and 256 pixels, as Windows and browsers expect
- Transparency is kept
Good to know
- External images and web fonts linked from the SVG are not loaded. Convert text to outlines (paths) before exporting so it displays correctly.
- The result is one still picture. Animations in the SVG are not played.
- Icons are square. A picture that is not square is fitted inside the square with transparent padding, not cropped.
03 / formats
SVG vs ICO
SVG
An SVG file describes an image using mathematical shapes and paths instead of pixels, so it stays perfectly sharp at any size. It's the standard format for logos, icons, and illustrations that need to scale without blurring.
Used in: Logos & icons · Illustrations · Scalable UI graphics
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
