- Description
- The PR file type, associated with Sun Icon/Cursor, refers to a specific format used to store icons and cursor images on systems that supported Sun Microsystems' graphical environments. These files typically contain bitmap images designed for use as graphical user interface elements, such as icons for applications or interactive cursors for mouse pointers. The format is tailored to the needs of Sun's software and hardware platforms, which were prevalent in the 1980s and 1990s, particularly in academic, engineering, and enterprise environments. Despite its historical significance, the PR file format is less commonly used today, given the evolution of computing technology and graphical standards.
- 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.
