FTS to KWD conversion is the process of transforming image files in the FTS format into the KWD image format. It involves decoding FTS's source encoding, optionally preserving layers or metadata, and re-encoding into KWD with chosen compression and quality settings for target use.

FTS files often store raw or proprietary data specific to certain applications, while KWD files are optimized for wider compatibility and easier editing. Converting FTS to KWD allows users to unlock better support and integration with common software tools. While FTS focuses on niche functionality, KWD prioritizes cross-platform usability.
Keep individual FTS files under 50–200 MB for fastest, most reliable conversion; very large stacks may be better processed in chunks.
To preserve visual fidelity, choose KWD-XL (lossless) or a high numeric quality (80–100); avoid aggressive compression for images with fine detail.
For many files, use batch conversion tools that preserve filenames and metadata; convert image sequences to KWD stacks when you need ordered frames.
Note format limitation: some proprietary FTS metadata or custom layer groups may not fully map to KWD; inspect converted files for missing layer-specific info.
