- Description
- The TN3 file type, associated with the "Tiny" descriptor, is a compressed image file format designed for efficient storage and quick loading of graphics. It is often utilized in applications or environments where memory and storage space are limited, such as older or embedded systems. TN3 files achieve their compact size through compression algorithms that reduce file size without significantly compromising the quality of the image. This format is particularly useful for small icons, thumbnails, or images that need to be loaded quickly on devices with constrained resources.
- A GIF file is an image file often used for web graphics. It may contain up to 256 indexed colors with a color palette that may be a predefined set of colors or may be adapted to the colors in the image. GIF files are saved in a lossless format, meaning the clarity of the image is not compromised with GIF compression.
