- Description
- The XCF file format is the native image format used by GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program), a free and open-source raster graphics editor used for image editing, free-form drawing, converting between different image formats, and more specialized tasks. XCF stands for eXperimental Computing Facility, which was the name of the lab where GIMP was originally developed. XCF files are designed to store all the information that GIMP needs to accurately render an image.
- B16 (PCO) files are binary data files used by the PCO CameraLink camera system. They contain raw image data and can be used for a variety of applications, including medical imaging, machine vision, and scientific research.
