ABS to DDS Conversion: FAQ
What are ABS files?
ABS is a picture file format associated with Optocat, a 3D image processing software developed by Breuckmann. The program is mostly used in architecture, to collect and process imagery, and in medical projects. Optocat allows high-quality scanning and the addition of a variety of filters and processing options. For easier handling and transfer, however, ABS files should be converted to more accessible formats after they are completed.
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).
