You can rip FF1&2 PSP with tools, maybe FFIV works the same way:

As far as I can remember, ff12div ver0.1 extracts the rippable files from the rom. Gim files can be extracted with gim2png, the other tools seem to be useless.
The rest is about ACG (sprite/background) and ACL (palette) files. If you can't find ACL, it's usually the full description "Auto Correct List files". To work with these kind of files, you need TiledGGD. Install Net framework before you use it, otherwise it will not work.

Next steps:

Installed Framework and did this:

1. Ctrl+T, then 16 x 16
2. Image -> Mode -> Tiled
3. Left/Right arrow keys changes width, Up/Down arrow keys changes height
4. Panel Size is 512x304
5. B changes Graphics Format, you want 8 bits/pixel
6. Ctrl+Z changes Graphics Skip Size, Page Up/Page Down does the actual skipping. Change it to 4 bytes and you'll only need to press Page Down 4 times

First I had that:

Then I went to Palette - Go to offset - Hexadecimal, 8, Absolute and got this:


Looks perfect now =)
Tried it with a second background, works wonderful. Expect a full sheet of the battle backgrounds in the future, special thanks to Deathbringer for the tutorial and the patience =D
