PCX Image Format PCX Converter
The PCX file format was introduced by ZSoft in the 1980s for Paintbrush Bitmap Image files. The Paintbrush software was developed for Windows PCs as a drawing and graphics editing program. Like other bitmap images, PCX files are raster images comprising pixels in a grid. The PCX format supported 24-bit colour, 8-bit greyscale and 1-bit black and white images. PCX files were compressed to make the file size smaller.
The format is not very commonly used anymore, especially as ZSoft no longer exists. However, the PCX format is still used by some scanners and fax machines. If you have a PCX image, you should still be able to open it in most programs that support raster files. These include Microsoft Photos, Apple Photos, Apple Preview, Google Photos, and image editors like Adobe PhotoShop, CorelDRAW or Corel PaintShop Pro.

ICO Image Format
ICO is the name of the format used for icons on Windows, such as the paintbrush and palette used for MS Paint, the tab file image for folders on File Explorer, or the different-coloured ‘W’, ‘X’, ‘P’, ‘O’ and ‘A’ logo icons used for Microsoft Office apps and files. The ICO format was developed by Microsoft especially for Windows. It’s not possible to associate an image with an app or file on a Windows device without using an ICO image.
ICO files contain one or more 2D ‘raster’ images – usually in different sizes so that they can be scaled appropriately as needed. The images are normally a lot smaller than most standard image files. You can use certain image editors and drawing programs to create ICO files from JPG or PNG files, or you can create the icons from scratch. Microsoft Paint, Adobe Photoshop and Preview for Mac can all be used to create ICO files. You can also use these programs to open and view ICO files.
