The ORA file extension stands for OpenRaster Image File, a format designed for the exchange of layered raster graphics between different software applications. Proposed in 2006 by developers from KDE and Krita, OpenRaster aims to provide an open alternative to proprietary formats like Adobe's PSD. The format encapsulates image layers, blending modes, and metadata within a ZIP archive containing XML and PNG files. Its primary use is to facilitate interoperability among various graphic editors, ensuring that complex image data can be shared and edited across different platforms.
The DirectDraw Surface (DDS) file extension is used primarily for storing graphical textures and cubic environment maps in the field of computer technology. Introduced by Microsoft with DirectX 7.0, DDS files facilitate efficient loading and storage of texture data, crucial for rendering 3D graphics in real-time applications like video games and simulation software. These files support both uncompressed and compressed formats, leveraging S3 Texture Compression (S3TC) to optimize memory usage and performance. DDS files are indispensable in modern graphics programming, enabling quick texture manipulation and robust graphical asset management.
