- 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.
- The XWD (X Windows Dump) image file format is a native graphic format associated with the X Window System, which is a windowing system for bitmap displays commonly used in UNIX and Linux environments. An XWD file is essentially a dump or snapshot of what is being displayed on a screen or part of it at a given moment. It stores image data in an uncompressed form, including the header information that contains details about the image's size, color, and format.
