An ICON file, an abbreviation for Icon Image File, is primarily used in Microsoft Windows operating systems to represent graphical icons. These files are essential for visually identifying applications, files, and folders, enhancing user experience through graphical representation. ICON files support multiple sizes and color depths, ensuring compatibility and visual clarity across different display settings. Introduced in the early versions of Windows, ICON files have evolved to accommodate higher resolutions and color variations, aligning with advancements in display technology. Their primary function is to provide a quick, intuitive visual reference for software and system elements.
The CAL file extension, known as CALS (Continuous Acquisition and Life-cycle Support) Type 1 Image, is a 1-bit black-and-white raster image format developed by the U.S. Department of Defense in the mid-1980s to standardize graphics data interchange for military documentation. It is primarily used for storing and sharing monochrome images while retaining orientation metadata. The format supports both uncompressed and compressed (using CCITT Group 4 compression) images.
