ICO Windows Icon

ICO is a container that holds one or more square icon images at different sizes. Browsers use it for favicon.ico and Windows uses it for application and shortcut icons.

PDF Portable Document Format

PDF fixes the layout of a document so it looks the same on every screen and printer. It can contain text, vector graphics, images, forms and signatures, which is why it is the standard for invoices, contracts and forms.

Why convert ICO to PDF?

ICO files are Windows icons and website favicons, and one file often holds several sizes. Icons are limited to 256×256 pixels and must be square. Choose PDF to send images as one document, print them at a fixed page size, or attach them to a form that asks for PDF.

ICO to PDF settings

Each ICO becomes one page. Choose A4, Letter or a page that matches the image size, set the margin and orientation, and drag the thumbnails to change the page order before creating the PDF.

Frequently asked questions

Will the PDF lose quality?

PDF uses lossy compression, so some fine detail is discarded to make the file smaller. At the default quality setting the difference is very hard to see. Raise the quality slider if you need the result to stay closer to the ICO original.

Is transparency kept when converting ICO to PDF?

PDF cannot store transparency, so transparent areas are filled with a solid colour. White is used by default; you can pick any background colour in the options before converting.

Questions about privacy, file-size limits or conversion speed are answered in the general FAQ.
