ATK to KTX2 Conversion
What are ATK files?
ATK is a raster image file format associated with Andrew Toolkit, a set of tools for distributing documents that contain embedded objects. The format was developed as part of the Andrew Project, launched at the Carnegie Mellon University in the United States, in the early 1980s. The project resulted in the development of several other types of computing infrastructure tools too, and was considered an important step for making such tools more accessible at the time.
What are KTX2 files?
KTX2 (Khronos Texture 2.0) is a container file format for GPU-ready texture data, published by the Khronos Group as the successor to the original KTX format. A single file can hold 1D, 2D, 3D, cubemap and array textures together with their full mipmap chains, stored in the memory layout expected by graphics APIs such as Vulkan, OpenGL and OpenGL ES, so the contents can be uploaded to the video card with little or no additional processing. Besides plain block-compressed data, KTX2 supports supercompression: Basis Universal (ETC1S and UASTC) allows one file to be transcoded at load time into the format the target device actually needs, while Zstandard and ZLIB simply reduce file size. The format is the texture payload used by the glTF KHR_texture_basisu extension, which makes it common in 3D assets for the web, game engines and AR applications.
