The PCDS file extension stands for Photo CD Multi-resolution Bitmap Graphics, a format developed by Kodak in 1991 for digitizing and storing high-quality images on CDs. PCDS files were used to store scanned prints and slides, leveraging proprietary encoding to maintain image quality. This format was part of Kodak's Photo CD system, which aimed to provide a reliable method for archiving and accessing digital photographs.
The JBIG (Joint Bi-level Image Group) file extension, standardized as ISO/IEC 11544 and ITU-T T.82 in 1993, is a lossless image compression format primarily used for binary images, such as those in fax transmissions. Developed by the Joint Bi-level Image Experts Group, JBIG offers significant compression efficiency over previous standards, achieving up to 50% better compression than Fax Group 4. Its history dates back to 1988 when ISO and CCITT collaborated to create a unified standard for bi-level image coding.
