- Description
- The CP8 file type, associated with the CP8 256 Gray Scale format, is a specific image file format primarily used for storing graphics in a grayscale color mode. It is capable of representing up to 256 shades of gray, providing a detailed range of intensity from black to white without color information. This format is often used in applications requiring detailed monochromatic images, such as medical imaging, professional photography, and certain types of technical illustrations. Due to its specialized nature, CP8 files may require specific software to view or edit.
- 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.
