- 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 PNG file is an image file stored in the Portable Network Graphic (PNG) format. It contains a bitmap of indexed colors and uses lossless compression, similar to a .GIF file but without copyright limitations. PNG files are commonly used to store graphics for web images.
