- Description
- The rl8 file type is associated with Windows Bitmap, a raster graphics image file format used primarily for storing digital images and graphics. Specifically, rl8 denotes a variant of the Bitmap format that uses 8 bits per pixel, allowing for 256 colors. It is commonly used in applications that require simple graphics with a limited color palette, such as icons, logos, and simple images. The .rl8 file extension indicates the file's adherence to this specific color depth within the broader Bitmap format family.
- An ICO file is an image format used to store icons for Windows programs, files, and folders. It contains two bitmaps: 1) the AND bitmap - the image mask (which determines what part of the icon is transparent) and 2) the XOR bitmap - contains the icon which is mapped onto the image mask. ICO files can be modified to create custom icons.
