(Optional) Adjust settings like DPI or color depth if the tool provides those options. 4. Click the 'Convert' button. 5. Download your RW2 file. The process takes only a few seconds and preserves the original pixel data.

Why would I need to convert an ICO to RW2?

ICO files are small icons for Windows applications, while RW2 is the raw image format used by Panasonic cameras. Converting an ICO to RW2 allows you to embed icon assets into professional photo editing workflows, taking advantage of RW2's high bit depth and lossless compression for non-destructive adjustments. It's particularly useful when you need to standardize all visual assets into a single raw editing pipeline.

What happens to transparency and resolution when converting ICO to RW2?

RW2 is a raw sensor format that does not support alpha channels, so any transparency in the original ICO is flattened to a solid background (typically black or white). The resolution is carried over directly: if the ICO is 256×256, the RW2 will also be 256×256. Color profiles embedded in the ICO are preserved, and DPI information is copied to the RW2 metadata. No interpolation or resampling is performed unless you explicitly upscale the image.
