- Description
- The PIG file type, associated with the Ricoh IS30 image scanner, is a proprietary image format used to store scanned documents and images. This format is specifically designed to work within the ecosystem of Ricoh's IS30 scanner software and hardware, ensuring compatibility and optimal performance. PIG files are typically used for archiving or processing scanned documents within professional settings, leveraging Ricoh's technology for document management and digital storage. To access or convert these files into more widely used formats, users may need specialized software provided by Ricoh or compatible third-party applications.
- Based on HEVC (High-Efficiency Video Coding), the HEIF format is an image file container with one or multiple images and is the default image format for Apple Live Photos. It replaced the JPEG format as it's smaller in size and has lossless compression ensuring high-quality photos.
