MTV to SIX conversion is the process of transforming image files saved in the MTV raster format into the SIX image format so they can be opened, edited, or used where SIX is required. This conversion maps MTV's pixel, palette, and metadata structures into SIX's expected encoding while preserving resolution and color information as much as possible.
