If you are not a Broderbund software user, then you might not know exactly what SIG files are. In that case, SIG, also known as Broderbund Sign File, is a proprietary graphics format used for storing sings or posters created with a Broderbund application such as PrintMaster or The Print Shop. As you can probably guess, SIG files can only be opened by Broderbund software, therefore, converting them to a popular and widely-supported graphics format, such as JPG (JPEG), is quite a good idea. This way, you will be able to view your SIG images with your favorite picture viewer or edit them with a photo editor.
