The CAD file type, associated with Autodesk QuickCAD, specifically refers to a thumbnail image file. These thumbnail files serve as small, visual previews of the larger, more detailed CAD (Computer-Aided Design) drawings created within the QuickCAD software. They are used for quickly identifying and navigating through multiple CAD files by providing a visual snapshot of the content without the need to open the full drawing. This feature enhances user efficiency and file management in design and drafting projects.
Based on HEVC (High-Efficiency Video Coding), the HEIF format is an image file container with one or multiple images and is the default image format for Apple Live Photos. It replaced the JPEG format as it's smaller in size and has lossless compression ensuring high-quality photos.
