I'm doing a port of an existing game and the designer no longer has all of the original art; he only has the resulting texture atlases he used when developing for iPad. The tool I'm using won't support these files so I need to break them back out into separate PNG files.

I'm hoping someone knows of a software tool that does this. PC software would be preferred in this case, but Mac would suffice.
