Convert WMZ to VIFF

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 Khoros Visualization Image File Format (VIFF), developed by AccuSoft Corporation, is a bitmap image format used primarily within the Khoros software environment for scientific and engineering applications. It supports various image types, including grayscale, color, and multi-spectral images, making it useful for visualizing complex datasets. Despite its powerful capabilities, VIFF is now considered somewhat obsolete due to the emergence of newer, more versatile image formats. However, it remains an important part of the history of image processing and visualization technologies.
