HIR to PCT Conversion: FAQ
What are HIR files?
HIR is an old image format associated with Commodore 64 computers, providing what was seen at the time as "high resolution". The Commodore 64 was one of the first types of computers widely available for home users and had an unprecedented popularity in the 1980s. At the moment, however, such files are considered rare and obsolete, so for easier handling you should probably convert them to a more accessible format.
What are PCT files?
PCT is an image file format associated with Macintosh QuickDraw, a graphics program developed in the 1980s as part of the Apple Macintosh operating system. The initial version of the format, called PICT 1, could store 8 colors, while the later developed PICT 2 supported 24 and 32-bit color images. In recent years, the format has decreased in popularity, being gradually replaced by more versatile formats.
