- 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.
- A PCT file is an image saved in the Macintosh PICT format, which was developed by Apple in 1984 for storing images using Apple QuickDraw technology. It contains image data in one of two formats, PICT 1, the original format that stores 8 colors, or PICT 2, a newer format that allows thousands of colors (24 and 32-bit images). PCT files support both raster and vector images.
