PWP to ABW conversion is the process of transforming image files in the PWP (Portable Web Picture) format into the ABW (ArtBitmap) image format so they can be opened, edited, or published by software that requires ABW. This conversion re-encodes the image data and optionally adjusts metadata, color profiles, compression, and resolution to preserve appearance and compatibility.
