Convert CG4 to PNG

Understanding the cg4 and png file formats

CG4 is a raster image file format used primarily by the LEADTOOLS imaging library. It is known for its efficient compression, especially for black-and-white or grayscale images, and is often used in document imaging and fax applications. However, CG4 is not widely supported outside specialized imaging software.

PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is a popular raster image format known for its lossless compression and broad compatibility across platforms and applications. PNG supports transparency and is commonly used for web graphics, digital images, and screenshots.
