Convert NTH to CGM

Understanding the nth and cgm file formats

NTH files are Nokia Theme files, primarily used to customize the appearance of Nokia mobile phones. These files contain graphics, icons, and sometimes sound files, all packaged in a compressed format. CGM (Computer Graphics Metafile) files, on the other hand, are vector graphics files used for 2D images in technical and engineering applications. CGM is a widely accepted standard for exchanging graphical data between different platforms and applications.

Why convert nth to cgm?

Converting NTH to CGM is useful if you want to extract graphical elements from a Nokia theme and use them in technical documentation, CAD software, or other vector-based applications that support CGM files.

How to convert nth to cgm

Direct conversion from NTH to CGM is not natively supported by most software, as NTH is a theme package rather than a graphic format. However, you can follow these steps:

1. Extract the NTH file: Change the file extension from .nth to .zip and extract it using any archive tool (e.g., WinRAR, 7-Zip).
2. Locate image files: Inside the extracted folder, find the image files (usually in .png or .jpg format).
3. Convert images to CGM: Use a vector graphics editor like CorelDRAW or Inkscape to open the image files. Then, use File → Export or File → Save As and select CGM as the output format.

Recommended software for conversion

• 7-Zip or WinRAR – for extracting NTH files.
• Inkscape (free, open-source) – for converting images to CGM format.
• CorelDRAW (commercial) – advanced vector editing and CGM export capabilities.

Summary

While there is no direct NTH to CGM converter, you can extract images from NTH files and convert them to CGM using vector graphics software. Inkscape is a free and effective tool for this process.
