PCD to FLIF Conversion: FAQ
What are PCD files?
The PCD (Photo CD) image file format was originally developed by Kodak for storing photos on compact discs. The PCD extension is associated with photos scanned using Kodak equipment, including a 24-bit color format. Though the PCD format failed to become widely popular, it continues to be used by professional photographers because it provides high quality film scans. PCDs can ensure a high degree of accuracy in rendering image details in scanned film negatives and transparencies or diapositives.
What are FLIF files?
FLIF (Free Lossless Image Format) is a royalty-free format launched at the end of 2015 as "work in progress" with the aim of offering a better alternative for storing lossless images than the existing PNG, WebP, BPG, JPEG2000 and JPEG XR. FLIF provides similar image quality as the other extensions, but in a file size than can be up to 74% smaller. The new format uses a form of the Adam7 algorithm for compressing images, offering progressive interlacing that allows users to obtain a reasonable encoding of an image even from a partial download.
