TM2 to FIG conversion is the process of transforming image data stored in the TM2 raster/tile map format into the FIG vector/graphics format. This conversion extracts raster tiles or embedded bitmap layers from TM2 and converts them into FIG-compatible images or embedded raster objects so they can be opened and edited in FIG-aware applications.

TM2 files typically use the image/tm2 MIME type and are used for raster graphics storage without compression codecs. FIG files use the application/x-fig MIME type and support vector graphic data in a text-based format compatible with Xfig software. TM2 is commonly used in environments where simple image representation is needed, while FIG is preferred for complex line art and technical diagrams.
The FIG (.FIG) format is commonly used for drawing. Understanding its characteristics can be helpful when converting to or from other formats like TM2.
While specific technical details aren't available here, FIG files generally serve the purpose of storing drawing effectively within their domain.

TM2 is primarily a bitmap image format used for raster graphics, whereas FIG is a vector graphics format designed for scalable and editable illustrations. While TM2 files are suitable for simple pixel-based images, FIG files provide greater flexibility for detailed graphic design and technical drawings. Converting TM2 to FIG enables users to leverage the advantages of vector graphics for enhanced editing and scalability.
Keep individual TM2 tile sets under 50–100 MB for faster conversion and reliable memory use; very large archives should be split before converting.
To preserve quality, choose lossless embedding (PNG) when exporting to FIG; use lossy JPEG only if file size is a priority and set quality to 85% or higher.
For batch conversions, process TM2 collections in groups and use a tool that supports command-line or queued jobs to avoid memory spikes.
Format limitation: TM2 is primarily raster/tiled data and does not contain native vector primitives—converted FIG files will often embed raster images rather than produce editable vector shapes.
