- Description
- The RIX file type, associated with ColoRIX, refers to an image file format used primarily in the late 1980s and early 1990s. ColoRIX was a graphics program that allowed users to create and manipulate images on PCs, particularly known for its use on systems running DOS. RIX files contain bitmap images saved in the ColoRIX format, supporting a range of colors and resolutions suitable for digital art and design of that era. Although not commonly used in modern graphics work, RIX files represent an interesting part of digital art history, especially for enthusiasts of retro computing and software.
- 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.
