About VLW files

VLW files, commonly associated with font data used in Processing programming language, are not widely known outside specific technical circles. These files store bitmap fonts, which makes them essential for certain graphics and design applications. However, this specificity also brings about challenges when handling and converting VLW files.

To convert VLW files into more versatile formats like TTF (TrueType Font), OTF (OpenType Font), or even PDF for better accessibility, software like Glyphs or FontForge can be used. These applications allow users to import VLW files and export them into different formats, providing a wider range of usability. For more technical details on font formats, you can refer to TrueType and OpenType on Wikipedia.

Despite these conversion options, users often face difficulties. VLW files, being bitmap-based, can lose quality when scaled, unlike vector-based fonts. This poses a challenge in maintaining font clarity and precision post-conversion. Moreover, the limited software supporting VLW files adds to the inconvenience. These drawbacks highlight the need for a reliable conversion solution.

The VLW Converter Story

The history of Convert.Guru began more than 25 years ago in California, when Tom Simondi published the most comprehensive database of file formats on his website. Before that, Tom had worked on Space Shuttle development at the Air Force Systems Command’s Space Division in Los Angeles. He is known as one of the top programmers of the late 1980s.

When Microsoft integrated Tom’s Filext database into Windows XP, it became the leading platform for analyzing and processing file types and formats.

Today, we use the latest technologies to analyze, process, and convert one of the world's largest collections of file formats. We are committed to developing the best VLW converter by continuously improving quality, usability, and reliability.
