Convert WMZ to DIB

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.

A Device Independent Bitmap (DIB) is a format for storing bitmap graphics, ensuring compatibility across different devices and platforms. Its primary use is to enable consistent image representation, regardless of the display hardware or software. Originating from early Windows operating systems, DIBs allowed developers to create graphics that would render accurately on various hardware. Today, DIBs are integral in applications needing uniform image display and manipulation, maintaining their relevance in diverse technological contexts.
