[?]Why only five sizes? Other generators produce fifteen.
The extra sizes target long-obsolete iOS versions. Shipping 57, 60, 72, 76, 114, 120 and 144 pixel icons makes the download bigger and your HTML noisier for no practical gain on any browser in current use. These five cover desktop tabs, iOS home screens, and the manifest spec.
[?]Do I need an .ico file?
Not any more. Every browser in current use accepts PNG favicons via a link tag. ICO only matters if you must support Internet Explorer.
[?]What should I feed it?
A square image, ideally 512 pixels or larger. Anything smaller gets upscaled for the 512 icon, and upscaling cannot invent detail that was never there. Simple, high-contrast artwork survives being shrunk to 16 pixels far better than a detailed photograph.
[?]What is in the ZIP?
The five PNG icons, a site.webmanifest fragment listing the two manifest icons, and a head-snippet.html with the link tags to paste into your page head. Generating icons without telling you how to reference them leaves the job half done.
[?]Why convert from PNG to ZIP?
Portable Network Graphics (PNG) and ZIP Graphic Raster (ZIP) serve distinct roles across the digital workflow. Converting to ZIP provides optimized compatibility, modern compression efficiency, or standardized playback across web browsers, operating systems, and media production environments.
[?]Is the PNG to ZIP conversion lossless or lossy?
The output format (ZIP) is inherently lossless or supports lossless operation. Your original visual or audio fidelity is mathematically preserved without quantization artifacts.
[?]Does convrtr upload my files to any cloud server?
Never. convrtr is architected with a strict zero-upload model. All processing, decoding, decompression, and encoding happen 100% locally on your machine using sandboxed WebAssembly and Web Workers. Your data never touches an external server, database, or analytics collector.
[?]How can I convert PNG to ZIP from the terminal / command line?
You can execute this conversion locally via command-line utilities such as ffmpeg, cwebp, or ImageMagick. For example: see the developer terminal recipe provided in the technical specifications dossier above. convrtr provides the identical local-first capability directly inside your browser without installing CLI packages.
[?]Can I batch convert multiple PNG files to ZIP simultaneously?
Yes. You can drop multiple .png files into the instrument to process them concurrently in browser Web Workers, or click 'Open in Master Studio' to queue mixed formats, configure individual targets, and export as a single ZIP archive.
