- 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.
- A JPG file is an image saved in a compressed image format standardized by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG). It is commonly used for storing digital photos and used by most digital cameras to save images. JPG files are among the most common image files along with .PNG, .TIF, and .GIF.
