PNG Image Format

PNG Converter

PNG is a common type of image file. The file extension PNG is short for ‘Portable Network Graphic’, and the format was created to offer improvements over the GIF format. Like JPG, PNG is a 2D ‘raster’ image format. However, unlike JPG, PNG files can have transparent or semi-transparent backgrounds around a design. This makes them perfect to use for company or brand logos or graphics that need to be placed in documents or over other images. They are also sometimes used for detailed graphs or diagrams online.

PNGs use lossless compression, which offers high-quality images with more colours. However, this often means PNG files are bigger than some other formats like JPG. The PNG format is open source, and you can open these files using almost all devices, image editors and viewers. Many smartphones now allow you to easily remove backgrounds and create PNGs of individual parts of photos.

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.
