What changes when you convert DWG to ICO

DWG describes geometry rather than pixels, so it has no inherent resolution. The conversion renders it at whatever size you choose, and that choice is final: enlarging the ICO afterwards will not recover the sharpness. Set the output dimensions or DPI before converting, not after.

"I needed to convert DWG to DXF for a laser cutter, and reaConverter did it flawlessly. The geometry remained intact, and the line weights were preserved. I've tried free tools, but they always mess up arcs. This is the only one I trust."
