- Description
- The LWI file format, standing for Light Work Image, is associated with software applications designed for digital image editing and manipulation. It is primarily used to store raster graphics, which may include digital photos or artwork processed through these specific programs. LWI files are designed to maintain the quality of the image while supporting various layers, adjustments, and effects applied within the editing software. This format is particularly useful for users who require a dedicated file type to save intermediate stages of their work or to preserve the full editability of their projects.
- A GIF file is an image file often used for web graphics. It may contain up to 256 indexed colors with a color palette that may be a predefined set of colors or may be adapted to the colors in the image. GIF files are saved in a lossless format, meaning the clarity of the image is not compromised with GIF compression.
