- The Sun Rasterfile, identified by the extension .rast, is a bitmap image file format originally developed for use on SunOS by Sun Microsystems. It is designed to store color and monochromatic raster images, such as scanned photographs and digital artwork. The format supports various color depths, including 1, 8, 24, and 32 bits per pixel, allowing for a range of color representations from simple black and white to full true color images. Despite its origins on Sun systems, the format can be used on various platforms and is supported by a variety of image editing and viewing software.
- WebP Image (WEP) is an image file format developed by Google in 2010. It is based on the VP8 video format and is used to create smaller, higher quality, and lossy compressed images. It is supported by most major web browsers and is commonly used for web graphics.
