How do I convert a DDS file to ODG?

Upload your DDS texture, choose ODG as the output format, and hit Convert. The decoder expands compressed DXT/BC blocks into a raw image and packages it as an OpenDocument Graphics file. You can then open the result in LibreOffice Draw or any ODG-compatible app. You can also adjust the output page size or image placement before download.

Why would I convert DDS to ODG?

DDS is designed for GPU texture loading, not document workflows. Converting to ODG lets you embed that texture in a vector drawing for presentations, manuals, or CAD annotations. It also reduces compatibility issues when sharing textures outside game engines, since ODG is an open ISO/IEC standard recognized by office suites.

Does the conversion preserve DDS alpha and compression?

The alpha channel is fully preserved as a transparency layer in the ODG PNG-compressed image. The underlying DDS compression (DXT1-5/BC1-5) is decoded to full RGB (or RGBA) so there's no visual loss from compression artifacts. Mipmap chains are flattened; the highest level of detail is used. Geometry or cube-map faces are not vectorized unless you enable the tracing option, which converts edges into Bézier curves.
