- Description
- The RLC file format, specifically denoted as Image Systems RLC2 Graphic, is a type of image file used primarily for storing bitmap graphics. Developed by Image Systems, this format is designed to store high-quality images in a compressed manner to save space without significantly sacrificing the image's integrity. RLC files are often used in specific industries or with specialized software that recognizes the RLC2 Graphic format. This makes them less common in general graphic design but valuable for targeted applications requiring the format's specific benefits.
- A BMP file is an uncompressed raster image comprised of a rectangular grid of pixels. It contains a file header (bitmap identifier, file size, width, height, color options, and bitmap data starting point) and bitmap pixels, each with a different color.
