T42 to RGBO conversion is the process of transforming files saved in the T42 format into the RGBO format, preserving the original data structure while adapting encoding, color/metadata blocks, and compression to match RGBO specifications. This conversion lets applications that require RGBO access T42-originated content without manual re-encoding or data loss when done with appropriate settings.
