- Description
- It is an icon image file used to show application icons in the macOS Finder and macOS dock. It contains one or several .PNG images and it supports 1bit and 8-bit alpha channels.
- The PICT2 file format, also known as Macintosh QuickDraw/PICT, is a graphics file format used primarily on Apple Macintosh computers. It is an upgrade of the original PICT format, designed to support more sophisticated graphics capabilities, including 32-bit color. PICT2 files are used for storing and exchanging graphical images, incorporating both bitmap and vector data. This format was widely used in Macintosh applications for illustrations, layouts, and page design before being succeeded by more modern formats.
