Convert PCX to PCT
Convert PCX images to PCT format, edit and optimize images online and free.
The PCX file extension, standing for PiCture eXchange, is a raster image format developed by ZSoft Corporation in 1985 for its PC Paintbrush software. It became one of the first widely accepted DOS imaging standards, supporting palette-indexed images from 2 to 256 colors and later true-color (24-bit) images. PCX files use RLE (Run-Length Encoding) compression, making them smaller in size. Although largely replaced by formats like BMP, JPEG, and PNG, PCX was pivotal in early computer graphics and is still supported by various image processing software.
The PCT (Personalized Image Capture Technology) file extension, developed by Apple in 1984, is a graphics file format used primarily for exchanging images between Macintosh applications. It supports both vector and bitmap graphics and was the native format for the QuickDraw graphics library. Over time, PCT has been largely replaced by PDF, but it remains supported by some applications for legacy purposes.
