- 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 kwd file type is associated with KWord, a word processing and desktop publishing application that was part of the KOffice suite primarily for Linux and UNIX-like operating systems. KWord documents, denoted by the .kwd extension, incorporate text, images, and formatting into a single file, allowing users to create professional-looking documents. KWord supported a wide range of features including templates, styles, frames, and more, making it a versatile tool for various document creation needs.
