Convert PNG ANIMATED to PCX

Animated PNG is a file extension for animated raster graphics. Developed as an extension of the Portable Network Graphics (PNG) format, Animated PNG allows for animation while maintaining PNG's lossless compression and transparency features. Introduced by Mozilla in 2004, it initially garnered limited support but gained traction for its compatibility and efficiency. Animated PNG is ideal for web usage, offering animation without the substantial file size of GIFs, making it suitable for high-quality web animations and UI elements.

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.
