How PS Handles SUB Data
Convert SUB to SRT for timestamp-based subtitle compatibility On the output side, Convert PS to PDF for modern viewing and distribution Together, following these practices ensures the best conversion outcome between MicroDVD Subtitle and PostScript File. Dynamic range — the span from darkest to brightest values — is handled carefully during this conversion. MicroDVD Subtitle preserves the full range. PostScript File maintains the complete dynamic range. Xonvert preserves embedded metadata (EXIF, XMP, ID3 tags, etc.) whenever the PostScript File format supports it. Format-exclusive metadata fields that have no equivalent in PostScript File are gracefully omitted without affecting the converted content.
This is a cross-category conversion from Subtitle (MicroDVD Subtitle) to Document (PostScript File).

Subtitle files typically contain legacy DVD subtitling and frame-accurate subtitle work, while Document files are used for professional printing. The conversion bridges these two domains, allowing you to repurpose your content across different workflows.
