The PCDS file extension stands for Photo CD Multi-resolution Bitmap Graphics, a format developed by Kodak in 1991 for digitizing and storing high-quality images on CDs. PCDS files were used to store scanned prints and slides, leveraging proprietary encoding to maintain image quality. This format was part of Kodak's Photo CD system, which aimed to provide a reliable method for archiving and accessing digital photographs.
AVIF, or AV1 Image File Format, is a modern image format derived from the AV1 video codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media. It is designed to deliver high-quality images with superior compression efficiency compared to traditional formats like JPEG and PNG. This format supports advanced features such as HDR (High Dynamic Range), WCG (Wide Color Gamut), 10-bit color depth, and alpha transparency, making it ideal for web developers and digital content creators seeking to optimize performance and visual fidelity. Introduced in 2018, AVIF has rapidly gained adoption due to its open-source nature and effectiveness in reducing file sizes without compromising quality.
