GV to HRZ conversion is the process of transforming image files in the GV format into the HRZ format so they can be opened, edited, or displayed by applications that require HRZ. This conversion typically re-encodes image data and metadata, optionally adjusting compression, color profiles, and quality settings to match HRZ's container and rendering expectations.
