The PCX file extension, standing for PiCture eXchange, is a raster image format developed by ZSoft Corporation in 1985 for its PC Paintbrush software. It became one of the first widely accepted DOS imaging standards, supporting palette-indexed images from 2 to 256 colors and later true-color (24-bit) images. PCX files use RLE (Run-Length Encoding) compression, making them smaller in size. Although largely replaced by formats like BMP, JPEG, and PNG, PCX was pivotal in early computer graphics and is still supported by various image processing software.
JPEG, short for Joint Photographic Experts Group, is a widely-used image file format for compressing digital photographs. Established in 1992 by the Joint Photographic Experts Group, it revolutionized digital imagery by providing efficient, lossy compression that maintains significant image quality. Primarily used in digital cameras, web graphics, and image sharing, JPEG files support full-color imaging with 24-bit depth, enabling detailed and high-quality photographs in relatively small file sizes.
