Reverse conversion

VDA at a glance

VDA

Convert to VDA when recovering or preserving historical Truevision-era graphics assets, or when normalizing a legacy image collection before moving it into PNG, TIFF, or another contemporary raster format.

WPS at a glance

WPS

Convert to WPS only when maintaining compatibility with inherited Microsoft Works documents or older systems that still expect that format.

In most current workflows the practical goal is to extract and migrate WPS content into DOCX, ODT, or PDF.

Use it as a legacy bridge, not a preferred modern target.
