SPL to PCT Conversion: FAQ
What are SPL files?
The .SPL file is a Gerber-format file used in PCB manufacturing. It follows the RS-274X standard and contains vector-based instructions for photoplotters, defining copper traces, solder masks, and silkscreen layers. Generated by PCB design software, SPL files ensure accurate translation of circuit layouts into physical boards during fabrication.
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.
