- Description
- The XFX file format is associated with a software product called OAZ Fax, which was used for sending, receiving, and managing fax documents via a computer. This format was specifically designed to store fax images, encapsulating the details of the faxed document in a way that could be easily transmitted or stored digitally. The use of XFX files has diminished as fax technology has been largely superseded by email and other digital communication methods. Despite its decline in popularity, the XFX format represents an important step in the evolution of document sharing and digital communication.
- 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.
