- Description
- The RAD file format is associated with Radiance, a suite of programs designed for the analysis and visualization of lighting in design. It is primarily used for simulating and predicting the light levels and appearance of a space prior to construction. RAD files contain descriptions of physical materials, geometry, and lighting in a scene, allowing for highly accurate light simulation and rendering. This format is widely used by architects and designers to understand and optimize the lighting of both interior and exterior spaces.
- Windows vector graphics format recognized by many image-editing applications; basically a 32-bit version of the original Windows Metafile Format (.WMF), which only supports 16-bit data; saves image data in an RGB format and does not support CMYK data.
