Convert PFA GRAPHICS to PCX

The PFA (Printer Font ASCII) file extension, developed by Adobe Systems, stores Adobe Type 1 fonts in a human-readable ASCII format, which can be converted to image files. Introduced as part of the PostScript character category in 1982, PFA files contain glyph data and can be opened in any text editor. They are primarily used on Linux and UNIX-like platforms and are incorporated into systems by copying them into the Fonts folder. The binary counterpart of PFA is the PFB (Printer Font Binary) file.

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.
