- Description
- The CUT file format is associated with Dr. Halo, a bitmap image file. It is primarily used to store raster graphics images created or processed within the Dr. Halo suite of graphic editing programs. CUT files contain bitmap images, which are composed of a grid of pixels or dots to represent images pixel by pixel. This format was more commonly used in earlier versions of Windows and DOS applications related to graphic design and image processing. Despite its limited use today, some graphic editors and converters still support the CUT file.
- Group 4 (G4) used for black and white lossless compression to maintain high-quality images, commonly used in TIFF format compression by fax machines. A picture is seen as black dots and lines on a blank page; the fewer the dots and lines are, the lesser the file size.
