EPS to ICO

Why convert EPS to ICO?

The main difference: EPS is a vector format, while ICO is a lossless format. ICO can have a transparent background, EPS can't.

Supports transparent backgrounds

ICO can hold a transparent background. Convert your image first, then cut out the background or place it on top of other designs.

Create a favicon or app icon

ICO is the icon format every browser and Windows understands. Convert a square EPS to get a favicon for your site or an icon for a desktop shortcut.

What is an EPS file?

EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) is a graphics format from Adobe used for decades in professional printing, logos and stock illustrations. It can hold vector artwork, images and text, ready for high-end printers.

EPS has largely been replaced by PDF and SVG, but print shops, sign makers and older logo packages still use it.

How to open an EPS file

Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop open EPS files; on a Mac, Preview converts them to PDF for viewing. Inkscape (free) imports many EPS files. Converting to PNG, JPG or SVG makes the artwork usable anywhere.

What is an ICO file?

ICO is the icon format of Microsoft Windows and the classic format for website favicons - the little image in a browser tab. One ICO file can hold several sizes (16 × 16, 32 × 32, 48 × 48 and more), so the icon looks sharp everywhere.

ICO supports transparency, so icons can have rounded or irregular shapes. Modern sites often add PNG and SVG favicons too, but favicon.ico is still the universal fallback.

How to open an ICO file

Windows shows ICO files in File Explorer and opens them in Photos; Mac Preview opens them too. GIMP and online editors can edit them. To make one, convert a square PNG - or use the Favicon Generator for a complete set.
