About SVG

SVG stores shapes, paths, text, and styling as XML. It scales cleanly and remains editable in browsers, code editors, and vector design tools.

About ICO

ICO is an icon container that can store one or more square bitmap sizes for browsers and Windows applications.

A real target-format file

The download is encoded as ICO; the tool does not rename a different file type to look converted.

Private browser processing

The source stays in your current browser tab. It is not sent to GenSVG for local format conversion.
