Convert SCT to G3

The Scitex Continuous Tone (SCT) file format, developed by Scitex, is used for high-end image processing and supports CMYK, RGB, and grayscale images. SCT files are uncompressed, ensuring high image quality, and are typically used with Scitex graphics processors and image editing software. This format was designed to maintain the integrity of large, detailed images used in professional graphics workflows.

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.
