- 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.
- A PS2 (Level II PostScript File) is a vector image file created by Adobe PostScript, a page description language (PDL) used by printers and other output devices to generate high-quality documents. It is a binary file format, which is an advanced version of the original PostScript language (Level I) and supports extended features such as multiple page sizes, transparency, spot color, and more.
