File Formats: PCX Formats (PCX and DCX) (original) (raw)
LEADTOOLS reads and writes the following PCX formats:
- PCX. This is a file format created by ZSoft. This format compresses its image data with the RLE type compression.
- DCX. This is a multipage PCX format that enables a file to contain more than one image. It is handled the same as a regular PCX file, except for the multipage feature.
For PCX and DCX files, you can read and write the following bits per pixel: 1, 4, 8, 24.
LEAD supports loading and saving multipage files in this format.
The LEADTOOLS Android SDK supports the PCX format.
