NConvert
| Description |
An additional resource for DDS files is NConvert (freeware). It can convert to and from DDS allowing DDS files to be converted to other formats. I recently used this tool to convert the DDS files that the TCS generates from the "Generate Local Maps" functon to jpegs. It is a console app (dos box) and not GUI. It will batch convert and is very fast. | |
