RAST to PCX Conversion: FAQ

What are RAST files?

RAST is a Sun Raster image format developed for Sun UNIX platforms. These types of operating systems were launched by Sun Microsystems for use on both workstations and server computer systems. As opposed to RAS, which is also a Sun Raster format, RAST images are less compatible with image viewers outside the Sun UNIX platforms. They support various types of image colour depths, from monochrome to 32-bit TrueColor and are mostly designed for UNIX users.

What are PCX files?

The PCX (Personal Computer Exchange) image file format is associated with PC Paintbrush, an image editing software initially designed for MS-DOS by ZSoft Corporation. At first, PCX files stored a limited range of colors but in time their range was extended to a 24-bit (true color) palette, and PC Paintbrush was adapted for Windows too. Though widely popular during the days of MS-DOS, the PCX format in time lost its appeal and was gradually replaced by formats such as JPEG and PNG.
