- Description
- The XWD (X Windows Dump) image file format is a native graphic format associated with the X Window System, which is a windowing system for bitmap displays commonly used in UNIX and Linux environments. An XWD file is essentially a dump or snapshot of what is being displayed on a screen or part of it at a given moment. It stores image data in an uncompressed form, including the header information that contains details about the image's size, color, and format.
- The kwd file type is associated with KWord, a word processing and desktop publishing application that was part of the KOffice suite primarily for Linux and UNIX-like operating systems. KWord documents, denoted by the .kwd extension, incorporate text, images, and formatting into a single file, allowing users to create professional-looking documents. KWord supported a wide range of features including templates, styles, frames, and more, making it a versatile tool for various document creation needs.
