- Description
- The PI4 file type is associated with Degas & Degas Elite, which are image file formats used primarily on the Atari ST series of computers in the 1980s and early 1990s. These files contain bitmap graphics created or manipulated within the Degas or Degas Elite drawing programs, which were notable for their powerful features and user-friendly interfaces during their time. PI4 files specifically represent images saved in a low-resolution mode, which typically means a palette of 16 colors from a selection of 512, at a resolution of 320x200 pixels. The format was widely used for digital art, game design, and multimedia presentations within the Atari ST community.
- 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.
