- Description
- The BFX file type is associated with Bitware, a fax document format used primarily by Bitware Fax software. Bitware was a popular fax and communications software package that allowed users to send, receive, and manage fax documents directly from their computers. BFX files contain the digital representation of faxed documents, enabling them to be stored, viewed, or printed using compatible software. Although the software has become less common with the decline of fax usage in favor of digital communication methods, BFX files represent a specific era of computer-based fax management.
- A GIF file is an image file often used for web graphics. It may contain up to 256 indexed colors with a color palette that may be a predefined set of colors or may be adapted to the colors in the image. GIF files are saved in a lossless format, meaning the clarity of the image is not compromised with GIF compression.
