- 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.
- PM (Unix XV Graphic File) is an image format used with the Unix XV image viewer and is supported by some other image viewers. It is a raster based format that stores RGB color values for each pixel in the image as well as various other settings.
