Convert PIX to PALM

The PIX file extension stands for Alias/Wavefront Run-Length Encoding (RLE) Image Format. Developed by Alias Systems Corporation (later acquired by Autodesk), it was designed for storing bitmap images in PowerAnimator and Alias 3D software. This format was instrumental in creating high-resolution 3D models and animations for movies and video games in the 1990s. The RLE compression minimized file size without compromising image quality, optimizing performance for graphics-heavy tasks. Although its usage has declined in favor of more versatile formats, PIX played a significant role in the evolution of computer graphics technology.

The PALM file extension, standing for Palm Pixmap, is a bitmap image format used by Palm OS mobile devices. It stores logos, clipart, photos, and other images for display in Palm OS applications. Originating from the now-discontinued Palm OS, the PALM format evolved through several versions, with later iterations supporting transparency and run-length encoding compression. PALM files are compatible with various operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and Mac OS, and can be opened and converted using tools.
