Convert WMZ to TIFF

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.

The Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) is a flexible and adaptable image file format widely used in professional environments due to its ability to store high-quality images with rich detail. Developed by Aldus Corporation in 1986, TIFF files support various color spaces and compression methods, making them ideal for archival purposes, high-resolution scanning, and desktop publishing. Its versatility and robust metadata handling ensure that TIFF remains a staple in industries requiring precise image fidelity.
