FAQ
DOT to DDS Conversion
What are DOT files?
DOT is the older Microsoft Word template, from the time of Word 97 to Word 2003. It stores a ready-made pattern for new documents: the page setup, fonts, styles, headers and footers, and standard text, such as a letterhead or a form. When a template is opened, Word creates a new document based on it. Modern Word can still use DOT templates, but new templates are saved as DOTX.
What are DDS files?
DDS (DirectDraw Surface) is an image file format that usually contains texture data, cubic environment maps or other type of data compressed using the S3TC (S3 Texture Compression) algorithm. The DDS format was first associated with Microsoft's DirectX 7.0 and later on with DirectDraw, a tool for accelerating the rendering of graphics in various applications. DDS is a container file and can be decompressed using a graphics processing unit (GPU).
