AFF to SHP Conversion: FAQ
What are AFF files?
AFF is an Acorn Draw vector graphics file, in which images are rendered by means of paths rather than grids of pixels, containing editable layers. Such files are used for creating and storing logos, brochures and other desktop publishing products. Their main advantage is the ability to provide high quality images when printed, but their disadvantage is the fact that they usually come in large sizes. AFF files were designed to work on the RISC operating system, first released by Acorn in the 1980s, and can currently be converted to more accessible formats.
What are SHP files?
The SHP (Shapefile) format stores vector files compatible with various Geographical Information System (GIS) software. SHP was developed by the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI), an American provider of GIS software and geodatabase management solutions, with the aim of improving interoperability between GIS software produced by ESRI and other developers. An SHP file usually contains vectorial descriptions of geospatial data (e.g. rivers, lakes), including specific attributes.
