What is PCS file?
PCS (PowerPoint Picture Storage) is a file extension used by Microsoft PowerPoint as a storage for graphical objects and images. The PCS file is composed of more than one element, which can include line art, audio, photos, clip art, and 3D models. It is particularly useful for power users who prefer to use .pcxs, the higher quality version. The PCS file is normally found in various system-created folders inside the program directory in which the PowerPoint presentation was created. [ ⏩ ] PCS file extension

Software, that you can use to convert
How to convert the file from PCS to VP3?
To successfully convert the PCS file to VP3, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.PCS). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case VP3 (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than VP3).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. PCS to VP3. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting PCS files to VP3 files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension VP3, while before this step we had the PCS file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new VP3 file, or not.
