Convert PCX images to TIFF format, edit and optimize images online and free.
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.
The Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) is a flexible and adaptable image file format widely used in professional environments due to its ability to store high-quality images with rich detail. Developed by Aldus Corporation in 1986, TIFF files support various color spaces and compression methods, making them ideal for archival purposes, high-resolution scanning, and desktop publishing. Its versatility and robust metadata handling ensure that TIFF remains a staple in industries requiring precise image fidelity.
