- Description
- The Pixar picture file, commonly referred to by its extension .pxr, is a raster graphics file format developed by the Pixar Animation Studios. It is specifically designed to store high-quality images with a focus on advanced graphics and animation projects. This file format is used to support the detailed texturing and complex rendering techniques often employed in 3D animation and film production by Pixar and other studios. Due to its specialized nature, .pxr files are primarily compatible with certain professional image editing and animation software.
- A PNG file is an image file stored in the Portable Network Graphic (PNG) format. It contains a bitmap of indexed colors and uses lossless compression, similar to a .GIF file but without copyright limitations. PNG files are commonly used to store graphics for web images.
