- Description
- The OIL (Open Image Library Format) file type is associated with a digital image format used for storing bitmap images. It is designed to be used in conjunction with the Open Image Library, a software library developed for the efficient handling, manipulation, and storage of images in various applications. The OIL format supports various color depths and can include metadata such as authorship and copyright information. Due to its flexibility and compatibility with the Open Image Library's features, it is suitable for both simple and complex image processing tasks.
- 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.
