Will You Lose Quality Converting ODG to TXT?
Dynamic range — the span from darkest to brightest values — is handled carefully during this conversion. OpenDocument Drawing preserves the full range. Plain Text maintains the complete dynamic range. Xonvert preserves embedded metadata (EXIF, XMP, ID3 tags, etc.) whenever the Plain Text format supports it. Format-exclusive metadata fields that have no equivalent in Plain Text are gracefully omitted without affecting the converted content. Quality in this conversion depends primarily on your source file. A high-quality OpenDocument Drawing input produces an excellent Plain Text output. Since the target format is lossless, output quality matches your input exactly.
