- Description
- The sar file type is associated with Saracen Paint, a digital painting and graphics editing software. It is primarily used to store digital artwork and image projects created within the Saracen Paint application. The .sar file format encapsulates various elements of a project, including layers, color information, and tool settings, allowing users to save and reopen their work with all its components intact. This file type is specific to Saracen Paint, meaning it may require the software or compatible viewers to open and edit the contents effectively.
- 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.
