- Description
- The FPX (FlashPix Bitmap Image File) format is a type of image file designed to support high-resolution photographs and images. Developed in the mid-1990s by a consortium including Kodak, Microsoft, Hewlett-Packard, and Live Picture Inc., the FPX format is based on the Image Content Architecture (ICA), which allows it to store multiple resolutions of an image within a single file. This makes it especially useful for efficiently viewing and editing images without requiring the full image file.
- Image file saved by the Krita painting program. A Krita file is a zip archive holding the full layer stack: each layer's pixel data as compressed tiles, its name, position, opacity, blending mode and visibility, plus a merged preview of the whole image.
