T42 to PGX conversion is the process of transforming raster image data stored in the T42 format into the JPEG 2000 Part 2 extended profile PGX format. This conversion remaps pixel encoding, metadata, and compression settings so images originally authored or archived as T42 can be read, displayed, or processed by tools that support PGX.
