Technical Quality Assessment
Xonvert preserves embedded metadata (EXIF, XMP, ID3 tags, etc.) whenever the Numbers Spreadsheet format supports it. Format-exclusive metadata fields that have no equivalent in Numbers Spreadsheet are gracefully omitted without affecting the converted content. Quality in this conversion depends primarily on your source file. A high-quality MicroDVD Subtitle input produces an excellent Numbers Spreadsheet output. Since the target format is lossless, output quality matches your input exactly. MicroDVD Subtitle encodes data using mathematical algorithms that preserve every data point. Numbers Spreadsheet prioritizes exact data preservation. The conversion maps between these approaches intelligently.
