Frequently Asked Questions
Why is SVG the best format for favicon conversion?
SVG is vector-based, so it can be rendered at any size without quality loss. This means your 16x16 favicon and 512x512 icon both look perfectly sharp.
Will my SVG gradients and effects work in favicons?
Basic gradients work well. Complex filters and effects may not render as expected at small favicon sizes. Keep your design simple for best results.
Can I convert an SVG with transparency?
Yes, SVG transparency is preserved in the PNG favicon outputs. Your icon will blend seamlessly with any browser tab background.
My SVG favicon looks different than expected. Why?
Ensure your SVG has a proper viewBox attribute. Some SVGs rely on external resources or specific renderers that may not match browser rendering.
What if my logo SVG is not square?
The converter will fit your SVG into a square canvas. For best results, create a square version of your logo specifically for favicon use.
