- Description
- The TCR file format is associated with eBook files specifically used by Psion Series 3 devices. Psion Series 3, a range of personal digital assistants (PDAs) developed in the early 1990s, utilized these files to store and display electronic books (eBooks). TCR files are designed to be compact to suit the limited storage capacities of early PDAs. They contain the text of the eBook, and possibly basic formatting, optimized for the low-resolution screens of the Psion device.
- Created by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC), SIXEL is a bitmap image format in an escaped sequence (seen as six pixels high and one pixel wide). You have to convert it into a more accessible format if you don’t have a DEC terminal to view it.
