RAS to WMF Conversion: FAQ
What are RAS files?
The RAS file extension represents the CALS Raster File Format, a standard developed by the U.S. Department of Defense for the interchange of monochrome raster graphics. It is primarily used for storing high-resolution, black-and-white images such as engineering drawings, technical manuals, and scanned documents. CALS RAS files are typically used in military, aerospace, and government applications due to their consistency and archival suitability. The format supports compression and is optimized for printing and long-term storage.
What are WMF files?
The WMF (Windows Metafile) format represents an image file with vector graphics, bitmap components or raster graphics, consisting mainly of drawing operations and commands. It was developed and released in the late 1980s by Microsoft and it included a 16-bit structure. In time WMF files were replaced by EMFs, featuring a 32-bit structure. WMFs are currently compatible with some programs from the Microsoft Office pack, such as Word, Power Point or Publisher.
