Convert MM to PNG

Understanding the mm and png file formats

MM files are created by FreeMind, a popular open-source mind mapping software. These files store mind maps in an XML-based format, allowing users to visually organize ideas, tasks, and concepts. PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is a widely used raster image format known for its lossless compression and support for transparency, making it ideal for sharing graphics and diagrams online.

Why convert mm to png?

Converting an MM file to PNG allows you to share your mind maps as static images. This is useful for embedding mind maps in presentations, documents, or websites, and for sharing with users who do not have FreeMind installed.

• Open your MM file in FreeMind or Freeplane.
