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.
The CRG file type is predominantly associated with Calamus, a sophisticated desktop publishing software targeted mainly at professional users. Developed initially for the Atari ST in the late 1980s, Calamus offers powerful tools for layout, text handling, and graphic design. CRG files specifically contain raster graphic data used and generated within the Calamus environment. These files enable users to manage and incorporate detailed graphic elements into their publishing projects, ensuring high-quality outputs for print and digital media.
