PALM to KWD conversion is the process of transforming image data stored in the PALM format into the KWD image format so the file can be opened, edited, or used by applications that require KWD. This conversion translates PALM-specific headers, color profiles, and compression into the equivalent structures used by KWD while attempting to preserve visual fidelity and metadata.
