The MONO file extension stands for "Monochrome Bitmap" and is used for storing raw bi-level bitmap images, which are essentially black-and-white images without any color or grayscale. This format is primarily utilized in applications requiring simple, high-contrast images, such as fax transmissions and certain types of document scanning. The MONO format, characterized by its least-significant-byte first order, has been supported by various image processing tools. Its history traces back to early bitmap graphics needs, emphasizing simplicity and efficiency in image storage and processing.
The CALS (Continuous Acquisition and Life-cycle Support) Type 1 Image file format, developed by the United States Department of Defense in the mid-1980s, is a standard for storing raster (bit-mapped) image data, typically black-and-white. It ensures efficient data interchange and retention of orientation metadata. The format supports both uncompressed and compressed (using CCITT Group 4 compression) images. This standard was part of the broader CALS initiative aimed at improving electronic publishing and data management within the federal government.
