Convert PWP to G3

The PWP file extension stands for PhotoWorks Image File, associated with the PhotoWorks software developed by Seattle FilmWorks. Primarily used in the late 1990s and early 2000s for storing color images, PWP files are similar to SFW files and were commonly used for image downloads from the internet. Although the software is now discontinued, PWP files can be converted to standard JPG images using specific converters.

The G3 file extension refers to the CCITT Group 3 Fax Image, a standardized format developed by the Consultative Committee for International Telegraphy and Telephony (CCITT), now known as ITU-T. This format was created to efficiently compress black-and-white fax documents for transmission over telephone lines. It employs a method called Modified Huffman Coding for data compression, enabling reduced transmission time and bandwidth usage. G3 was widely adopted in the 1980s and 1990s as the primary standard for fax transmissions, ensuring compatibility across different fax machines and systems.
