- Description
- The KFX file format, associated with Kofax Group 4, is primarily used for storing scanned document images. It employs a compression method based on the Group 4 fax encoding, which is efficient for compressing black and white images, making it suitable for archiving documents. KFX files are part of the solutions offered by Kofax for document capture and management, aiming to optimize the process of converting paper documents into electronic format for easy storage, retrieval, and management. This format is particularly popular in industries where high-volume document scanning and archiving are common, such as legal, financial, and governmental sectors.
- A BMP file is an uncompressed raster image comprised of a rectangular grid of pixels. It contains a file header (bitmap identifier, file size, width, height, color options, and bitmap data starting point) and bitmap pixels, each with a different color.
