Convert WMZ to AVIF

The WMZ file extension stands for Compressed Windows Metafile, a format developed by Microsoft to store vector graphics in a compressed form using Gzip compression. Initially used in older Microsoft Office documents to optimize file sizes for embedded images, WMZ files have become less common with the advent of more modern formats like EMF. These files can be decompressed using utilities like WinZip or 7-Zip, and the resulting WMF files can be viewed or edited in applications such as Microsoft Office and Adobe Illustrator.

AVIF, or AV1 Image File Format, is a modern image format derived from the AV1 video codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media. It is designed to deliver high-quality images with superior compression efficiency compared to traditional formats like JPEG and PNG. This format supports advanced features such as HDR (High Dynamic Range), WCG (Wide Color Gamut), 10-bit color depth, and alpha transparency, making it ideal for web developers and digital content creators seeking to optimize performance and visual fidelity. Introduced in 2018, AVIF has rapidly gained adoption due to its open-source nature and effectiveness in reducing file sizes without compromising quality.
