- Description
- PCX, standing for Paintbrush Bitmap Image, is a raster image format developed by ZSoft Corporation for their PC Paintbrush graphics program. Initially released in the 1980s, PCX was one of the first widely used bitmap image formats on IBM PC compatible computers. The format supports 1-bit monochrome, 4-bit palette, 8-bit palette, and 24-bit true color images, allowing for a wide range of colors and shades.
- The JFIF (JPEG File Interchange Format) format makes it possible to transfer compressed JPEG files across computers. This graphical file format uses a marker to show various parameters not seen in the standard JPEG file — for instance, pixel size, pixel geometry, among others.
