FAQ
MSK to SHP Conversion
What are MSK files?
MSK is an image file associated with PaintShop Pro, an advanced image editor created for Windows platforms. The program can handle both raster and vector images and starting from 2004 it is owned by Corel. MSK files contain layer masks or clipping masks used in PaintShop Pro, that help users operate with transparencies. MSK files are considered uncommon and opening them outside PaintShop Pro might pose difficulties.
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.
