SFW to RGF conversion is the process of transforming images stored in the SFW (Scalable Fine-grain Web) format into the RGF (Raster Graphics Format) format. This conversion repackages SFW's scalable/vector-hybrid assets and layered raster data into RGF's flattened raster containers for broad compatibility with legacy image editors and web platforms.
