FTS to IPL conversion is the process of transforming image data stored in the FTS (Flexible Tile Set) raster format into the IPL (Image Packed Layer) format so the image can be used by software that requires IPL files. This conversion translates tile layouts, color profiles, and any embedded metadata while optionally adjusting compression and quality settings to match IPL specifications.

Converting FTS to IPL helps unlock greater compatibility and usability across multiple platforms. IPL format often offers better compression and editing capabilities compared to FTS.
Keep individual FTS input files under 100–250 MB for faster, more reliable conversion and to reduce memory overhead in browser-based tools.
To preserve maximum image fidelity, choose IPL lossless or disable lossy compression and ensure the color profile is embedded during conversion.
For large batches, convert files in groups of 10–20 to avoid timeouts; use a desktop converter or a server-side workflow for thousands of files.
Be aware that some FTS features like proprietary tiled metadata or custom indexing may not map perfectly to IPL and could be flattened or lost.
