Convert ORA to MONO

The ORA file extension stands for OpenRaster Image File, a format designed for the exchange of layered raster graphics between different software applications. Proposed in 2006 by developers from KDE and Krita, OpenRaster aims to provide an open alternative to proprietary formats like Adobe's PSD. The format encapsulates image layers, blending modes, and metadata within a ZIP archive containing XML and PNG files. Its primary use is to facilitate interoperability among various graphic editors, ensuring that complex image data can be shared and edited across different platforms.

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.
