- Description
- Bitmap image used by the X Window System (X11), a graphical user interface (GUI) used to manage networked client-server computers; stores a monochrome image that is written as plain text in the C programming language.
- It is an image compression codec file with the same quality as .jpeg, but that is ten smaller. It supports HDR (High Dynamic Range). SDR (Standard Dynamic Range), and WCG (Wide Color Gamut) images. Also, it contains both the image sequences and image items. The only pitfall is that a few applications support it.
