- Description
- The PCC file format is associated with ZSoft Corporation's Publisher's Paintbrush, an early and popular bitmap graphics editing program. PCC files contain image data saved in a compressed format, allowing for efficient storage and manipulation of digital images. This format was widely used in the late 1980s and early 1990s, particularly in the realm of PC-based graphic design and desktop publishing. Over time, as new graphics editing software emerged, the use of PCC files has diminished, but they can still be viewed with some specialized or legacy image viewing applications.
- 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.
