- Description
- The PC1 file type is associated with Degas & Degas Elite, which are graphics programs designed for use on the Atari ST series of computers in the 1980s. These applications were popular for their ability to create detailed digital art and illustrations, leveraging the advanced graphical capabilities of the Atari ST. PC1 files specifically contain image data saved in a format native to these programs, supporting various resolutions and color palettes available on the Atari platform. Due to the specialized nature of the PC1 format, opening or editing these files requires specific software or emulators capable of emulating the Atari ST environment.
- A JPEG file is an image saved in a compressed graphic format standardized by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG). It supports up to 24-bit color and is compressed using lossy compression, which may noticeably reduce the image quality if high amounts of compression are used. JPEG files are commonly used for storing digital photos and web graphics.
