Photo Works image (PWP) is a binary, raster graphic format developed by Seattle Film Works. It is a color image software that closely resembles the SFW file format. PWP is used to download images from the internet and convert them to the required standard form. It only distributes content but also displays visual information online. It also stores multiple files together, just like the SFW file format.
The PWP software became obsolete after it merged with Shutter fly, which shares photos and albums online. The software is mainly used in identifying the specific types of format in given pictures. The files in the PWP format are compressed to the JPEG format; hence they have the same quality after compression. The files come in the .pwp extension.
It gives users the opportunity to digitize images when processing them to propriety file formats. In an agreement between Film works and AT& T, World Ne Services allowed their customers access to the Seattle website in 2000. Getting a license to freely access and use the Photo works (PWP) software.
Photo Works Image File, Professional Write plus Document, Seattle, and Smithcorona are among the programs that are capable of opening of the PWP files.
