- Description
- The PICT2 file format, also known as Macintosh QuickDraw/PICT, is a graphics file format used primarily on Apple Macintosh computers. It is an upgrade of the original PICT format, designed to support more sophisticated graphics capabilities, including 32-bit color. PICT2 files are used for storing and exchanging graphical images, incorporating both bitmap and vector data. This format was widely used in Macintosh applications for illustrations, layouts, and page design before being succeeded by more modern formats.
- An ICO file is an image format used to store icons for Windows programs, files, and folders. It contains two bitmaps: 1) the AND bitmap - the image mask (which determines what part of the icon is transparent) and 2) the XOR bitmap - contains the icon which is mapped onto the image mask. ICO files can be modified to create custom icons.
