Convert WMF to J2K

The Windows Metafile (WMF) is a graphic file format used by Microsoft Windows to store vector and bitmap image data. Originating in the late 1980s, WMF files enable the efficient exchange of graphical content between applications. They serve functions like clip art storage, image rendering in documents, and transferring graphics across different software platforms. Designed to be device-independent, WMF ensures consistent image presentation regardless of the output device, maintaining visual fidelity across varying screen resolutions and printer outputs. As a legacy format, its use has diminished with the advent of more advanced graphical file formats.

The J2K file extension stands for JPEG 2000 Code Stream Syntax, a part of the JPEG 2000 standard developed by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG). Introduced in 2000, JPEG 2000 offers superior image compression and quality compared to the original JPEG format. The J2K codestream is highly flexible, supporting both lossy and lossless compression, and allows for scalable decoding, which means images can be efficiently accessed at various resolutions and quality levels. This makes J2K ideal for applications requiring high-quality image storage and transmission, such as medical imaging, digital cinema, and satellite imagery.
