PI to PCT Conversion: FAQ
What are PI files?
PI is an obsolete file format associated with Blazing Paddles, a graphics program created for Commodore computers. This brand was highly popular in the 1980s, with the Commodore 64 model being the best-selling home computer worldwide until this day. The PI extension can also be attached to images created or edited using Degas or Degas Elite, two image processing programs also released in the 1980s, but for Atari computers.
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.
