Thumbnail Image Format | N/A | Graphic Files |
The .TNL file format is a type of images commonly used for website thumbnails. It was created by an editable vector image program called CorelDRAW. TNL files are vector-based graphics, which store both large and small images in a compact form without compromising their quality. Compared to other image formats such as .JPEG,.GIF, and .PNG, they provide lossless compression which helps to conserve disk space.
Technical Details
TNL files use data structures such as objects, paths, text, bitmaps, segments, polygons, mesh fill definitions, intersecting lines and others to store vector-based graphical information. However, due to their small file size, TNL files can also be used for storing graphical images with a limited amount of detail. These files support CMYK color models which offer 16 million unique colors and are therefore associated with some advanced graphic files like vector logos. Due to these features, TNL files are often used by the graphics design industry.
Generally speaking, .TNL files are not compatible with most standard image viewers and require specialized software designed to open and manipulate TNL files. For example, Thumbnail Image Viewer (TIViewer) and CorelDRAW are the applications which allow reading and manipulating TNL files. This extension is similar to other thumbnail file types such as .THM, .THMX, .VTF, etc.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .TNL) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .TNL extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .TNL file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .TNL extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .TNL extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .TNL file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .TNL file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .TNL file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .TNL file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .TNL file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
