Convert MONO to MIFF

The MONO file extension stands for "Monochrome Bitmap" and is used for storing raw bi-level bitmap images, which are essentially black-and-white images without any color or grayscale. This format is primarily utilized in applications requiring simple, high-contrast images, such as fax transmissions and certain types of document scanning. The MONO format, characterized by its least-significant-byte first order, has been supported by various image processing tools. Its history traces back to early bitmap graphics needs, emphasizing simplicity and efficiency in image storage and processing.

The Magick Image File Format (MIFF) is a platform-independent format developed by John Cristy for ImageMagick, designed to store bitmap images. MIFF supports extensive metadata, including image color profiles, comments, and copyright information, making it versatile for various applications. It is particularly useful in image processing and conversion tasks due to its ability to handle multiple image formats like JPEG, TIFF, and PNG. MIFF's history dates back to its inception as part of the ImageMagick toolkit, which is widely used for image manipulation across different platforms.
