- Description
- The SXW file format is associated with StarOffice Writer, a word processing application that was part of the StarOffice suite developed by Sun Microsystems. The SXW file type was primarily used to save text documents that could include formatted text, images, tables, and other document elements. StarOffice served as a precursor to the more widely known OpenOffice.org suite, which later evolved into Apache OpenOffice and LibreOffice, among others.
- A PSD file is an image file created by Adobe Photoshop, a professional image-editing program often used to enhance digital photos and create web graphics. It is the native format used to save files in Photoshop. PSD files may include image layers, adjustment layers, layer masks, annotations, file information, keywords, and other Photoshop-specific elements. They are commonly created and shared among graphics professionals.
