Convert TIF to CDX

What is TIF file?

TIF (.TIF or TIFF) is an image file format standardized in 1988 by Aldus (Aldus Corporation) and Microsoft (Microsoft Corporation) for storing raster and vector images. It allows images to be individually compressed and they are composed of forms, lines and text. It supports different versions of bitmap, depending on how the image has been encoded and supports RGB, CMYK palettes, Indexed color, and various compression algorithms. [ ⏩ ] TIF file extension

What is CDX file?

The CDX file type is used by the vector graphics program CorelDRAW. CDX files are a compressed version of the standard CorelDRAW drawing format, which is often referred to as a CDR file. These compressed files use a lossless method of compressing the data known as zip compression, in order to reduce the size of the file and enable faster loading. CDX files are also used for convenient storage and telecommunication, since they have a much smaller size than the original CDR file. [ ⏩ ] CDX file extension

How to convert the file from TIF to CDX?

To successfully convert the TIF file to CDX, 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.TIF). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case CDX (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 CDX).

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. TIF to CDX. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.

Program for converting TIF files to CDX 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 CDX, while before this step we had the TIF file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new CDX file, or not.
