How to use Convert ICO to BMP
- 1. Upload the ICO file. Drop in an icon file. If it contains multiple sizes bundled together, the tool works from the image data inside the icon container.
- 2. The tool converts it automatically. There is nothing to configure. The icon's pixel data is written out as an uncompressed BMP bitmap, a simpler format than the multi-size ICO container.
- 3. Download the BMP file. Save the resulting .bmp from the output panel, useful when a downstream tool or editor cannot open ICO files directly.
When to use Convert ICO to BMP
Convert ICO to BMP takes an icon file and writes its image data out as an uncompressed BMP bitmap. It helps when a favicon or app icon needs to be edited or processed in a tool that only understands plain bitmap images.
- Editing a favicon in a basic image editor. A site's favicon.ico needs a small tweak, but the available image editor cannot open ICO files directly, so converting it to BMP first makes it editable.
- Extracting artwork from an old application icon. An older Windows application's .ico file has artwork worth reusing, and converting it to BMP gives a format that more tools can open and manipulate.
- Feeding an icon into a bitmap-only pipeline. An automated image-processing pipeline only accepts BMP input, and an icon file needs converting before it can be dropped into that workflow.
