Convert TIF to DRW

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 DRW file?

The DRW file extension is an abbreviation of ‘Drawing File’. These are computer drawings created and saved in a vector graphics format and designed to be viewed and read using a compatible vector graphic editor, such as those found in the Adobe Creative Suite or CorelDRAW Graphics Suite. DRW files are useful when creating logos, illustrations, diagrams, charts, or simple line drawings and can range from a few dozen bytes up to several megabytes for complex images.

How to convert the file from TIF to DRW?

To successfully convert the TIF file to DRW, 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 DRW (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 DRW).

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

Program for converting TIF files to DRW 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 DRW, 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 DRW file, or not.
