Converting SYN to AI

SYN is an old and obsolete image format also known as Synthetic Universe. It is similar in size and features with the SYNU format, and might be equally difficult to open via regular image viewers. In case you found or were sent such a file, it's probably best to convert it to a more accessible format before trying to open it.

AI (Adobe Illustrator Artwork) is a proprietary format used by Adobe Illustrator to create vector-based drawings. Though highly popular among graphic designer due to its ability to offer the possibility of creating and editing vector-based drawings. AI files can prove to be incompatible with most image viewers. For this reason, designers usually prefer to convert them to a more accessible format after finalizing the drawing.
