- Description
- The XPM (X11 Pixmap Graphic) file format is a plain text file format used to store pixmap images, which are pixel-based graphics. It is designed for use with the X Window System, commonly used in Unix and Linux environments. XPM files define images in a structured format, using ASCII text to describe each pixel's color and location within the image. This format supports both monochrome and color images and allows for the definition of custom color palettes.
- The sk2 file type is a vector graphic format created by the sK1 open source vector graphics editor. It is an extension of the sk1 format and is used to store vector graphics and images. The sk2 file format supports layers, masking, transparency, and other advanced features.
