The XWD (X Windows Dump) file extension refers to an uncompressed bitmap image format used by the X Window System to store screen captures or "screen dumps" of windows or backgrounds. Developed by the X Consortium, it captures images of graphical user interfaces on UNIX and Linux platforms. The format, originating with X10 and later used in X11, is known for its large file sizes due to the lack of compression. XWD files are typically used for debugging and documentation purposes within the realm of computer graphics.
The Free Lossless Image Format (FLIF) is a lossless image compression format designed to outperform other formats like PNG, lossless WebP, and JPEG 2000 in terms of compression ratio. Introduced in 2015, FLIF uses MANIAC (Meta-Adaptive Near-zero Integer Arithmetic Coding) for efficient compression, making it suitable for various image types without quality loss. Despite its advantages, FLIF development ceased as it was superseded by JPEG XL.
