- Description
- PSP file format is associated with PaintShop Pro, an image editing software developed by Corel. It is a proprietary format used for storing raster graphics created and manipulated within PaintShop Pro. PSP files support layers, channels, and various other advanced graphics elements, allowing for detailed and complex image editing. This format is primarily used for saving intermediate edits, enabling users to continue working on their projects with all elements intact.
- The GEM (Graphical Environment Manager) Paint file type, with the extension .gem, originates from Digital Research's Graphical Environment Manager, which was an early graphical user interface for computers. These files are specifically used to store bitmap images created or manipulated within the GEM Paint application. GEM Paint provided users with basic tools for creating and editing images, much like early versions of Microsoft Paint. The .gem file format is primarily associated with the GEM desktop environment that was popular in the mid-1980s for PCs running CP/M and later on the Atari ST series of computers.
