- 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 STM file type is primarily associated with PhotoStudio, a photo editing software developed by ArcSoft. It specifically refers to the PhotoStudio Stamp file, which is used to store stamp data or templates that can be applied to images within the software. These stamp files allow users to easily add pre-designed graphical elements, such as symbols, icons, or decorative motifs, to their photographs or projects. The STM format facilitates the customization and enhancement of images by providing a library of creative assets directly within the PhotoStudio environment.
