PDN to SHP Conversion: FAQ
What are PDN files?
PDN is the native file format used by Paint.NET, a popular free image and photo editing software for Windows. A PDN file stores the entire project data for an image, including layers, layer properties, transparency, blending modes, text, and editing history. Unlike standard image formats like JPEG or PNG, which flatten an image into a single layer, PDN files preserve all editable elements, making them ideal for ongoing design work or complex image editing tasks.
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.
