EPS to ICO converter

The Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) file format is a subset of the PostScript language for graphics file interchange. It is used for vector and bitmap formats, such as illustrations, logos, barcodes, and other graphical elements. EPS files are supported by many different applications and are often used in desktop publishing.

The EPS format enables vector editing and can be exported to other formats, such as PDF, JPEG, or TIFF. Graphics created in an EPS format can also be scaled to a higher or lower resolution without affecting image quality. Vector-based graphics in EPS files are typically used for print media, while bitmaps are ideal for web graphics.

ICO is a graphics file format used for computer icons. It was created by Microsoft for use with Windows, and most image editors support the creation and saving of this image type. ICO files contain small images and are typically saved in either 16x16 pixel or 32x32 pixel sizes, but larger sizes are also supported.

ICO files use a specific header which contains metadata, followed by an array of bits that represent the pixels. It supports several color depths (typically 1, 4 and 8 bits per pixel) and can include optional transparency and alternative image formats. ICO files can sometimes contain multiple sizes or variations of the same icon, allowing it to be scaled to different sizes while maintaining a consistent appearance.
