- Description
- An ICO file is an image format used to store icons for Windows programs, files, and folders. It contains two bitmaps: 1) the AND bitmap - the image mask (which determines what part of the icon is transparent) and 2) the XOR bitmap - contains the icon which is mapped onto the image mask. ICO files can be modified to create custom icons.
- The CPI file format is associated with Calamus, a sophisticated desktop publishing application originally developed for the Atari ST computer in the late 1980s. Calamus offers precise control over layout and typography, catering to professionals in desktop publishing. CPI files specifically contain document information that Calamus uses, including layout templates, graphic elements, and text formatting details. This format is essential for preserving the integrity and design of a publication within the Calamus ecosystem.
